[LM_NET] Author Biography Web Sites?

[Davinna <davinna@COMCAST.NET>]

Hi.  An 8th grade English teacher is bringing in 3 of her classes next
week so they can work on an author biography project.  She wants them to
do their research on the computers.  Each student can choose the author
they'd like to study, whether the author be classic, popular, young
adult or adult.  We have Novelist which contains some author
biographies.  Periodical databases can bring up author interviews, and
web searches will bring up many author web sites.  Do any of you know of
any great web sites that lead to or provide author biographies?

 

Thank you,
