Each year the National Centre of Biography, based in the School of History, hosts the Biography Workshop series. This series was established in response to requests by practitioners, students, and readers of biography for a forum to discuss a range of methodological issues relating to biography.
The NCB will host ten monthly Biography Workshops in 2025. Throughout the year a wide-ranging set of speakers will discuss their biographical projects, problems, and passions. Each hour-long presentation is followed by a Q&A.
All are welcome! See the program below for the dates and topics for 2025.
