What type of pronouns does a biography use?

A biography uses third-person pronouns to refer to the subject of the biography. These include:

* He/Him/His (for a male subject)

* She/Her/Hers (for a female subject)

* They/Them/Their (for a non-binary or gender-neutral subject, or when the gender of the subject is unknown or irrelevant)

Examples:

* He was born in a small town in the Midwest.

* She became a famous author at a young age.

* They are known for their groundbreaking work in science.

Why third-person pronouns?

Biographies are written about a specific individual, and using third-person pronouns helps to maintain a sense of objectivity and distance from the subject. It also allows the biographer to tell the story from an external perspective, rather than directly participating in the events.
