Finding biographical information
Locating Biographical Information.
You can locate biographical information in:
- Library books
- Databases that specialize in biographical information.
Research Recipe for Biographical Information.
When looking for biographies, try searching for theorist name AND biography.
For example, if I was looking for biographical information on Kurt Lewin in the library catalog, I would search for Kurt Lewin and biography. If you are in a database that specializes in biographies, you may just need to put the theorist's name.
