The Difference Between Authorized and Unauthorized Biographies
By: QQAdmin1 | July 14, 2009

Q: I’m considering writing a biography about someone relatively famous in my hometown. I’ve noticed that biographies fall into one of two categories: authorized and unauthorized. What’s the difference?

A: The difference between an authorized biography and an unauthorized biography is this: An authorized biography is written with the help/cooperation of the person whom the book is about and an unauthorized biography is not.

In an authorized biography, the author typically holds interviews with the subject of the book, the subject’s family members and friends, co-workers, etc. The author is privy to information only attainable from the subject of the book. So, let’s say you wanted to write Brian A. Klems: Man, Writer, Softball Champion and wanted it to be an authorized biography. You’d contact me and ask for my blessing and cooperation, getting as much information as you can directly from me (and those around me). If I were deceased (yikes!), you’d need the blessing of my estate. Also, depending on level of involvement, sometimes the subject will get a shared byline and possibly a share of the book’s revenue. Issues like that can—and should—be addressed before the book is started.

On the flip side, if you call for my help and I tell you to buzz off, you have two options: 1) to actually buzz off or 2) to go ahead and write the biography anyway without my help. Here you’ll have to gather info on your own from public records and other resources, but you won’t have to make any professional compromises or financial concessions.

Before you write any biography, authorized or not, I recommend reading the article “Publication Of An Unauthorized Biography” by Lloyd L. Rich. He offers up an excellent breakdown of the potential legal ramifications, what they mean and how to avoid them.

Brian A. Klems is the online community editor of Writer’s Digest magazine.

What is authorised edition?

To me, authorised edition means simply the subject or the self-styled hero/guru/goondu knows the writer and has given him the green light to write about him with his input and assistance. An unauthorised edition means the writer doesn't give a damn whether the lau hero approves or not; so long as he knows how to steer clear of defamation laws.

What is authorised edition?

It meant that edition will come with a T shirt.
Cheap cheap at only $500 extra!
So he can go laughing on way to bank even lagi louder

Those in business have no choice. They are coerced into making donations.

For a physical copy, get it from a library. Libraries are established in all countries on the earth. It's a service every government must DO. Libraries in Singapore are not created and provided by the PAP. The PAP can claim no credit. Credit goes to the National Library Board, the PEOPLE of Singapore, and the donors. With or without the PAP, libraries in Singapore will still be there, and as it is today.

Absolutely agree but there are still many who, die die, must hold a book. These are die-hard book lovers.
A BOOK in the hand is worth TWO in the tablet.
Make sense? Apology...Just having a 强词夺理 break.

Whether it is $2.50 or $25 dollars chicken rice, both will still produce the same shit thru the anal. So why even bother?
