Lifebio.com: Helping everone create their own biographies!

I've watched a number of my friends create and publish autobiographies and celebratory biogrpaphies aka Festschrifts for their family and friends. This is a daunting task. LifeBio's tools with hundreds of questions are essential for people who want to pass on  their wisdom and stories to their progeny but cannot just gettiing started. Even those who are creating (auto) biographies the structure, checklist, and community provided at www.LifeBio.com will be useful.

"LifeBio was founded in 2000 by Beth Sancers and, since then, thousands of clients and dozens of communities have utilized LifeBio.com, the Memory Journal, other biography tools, services, and training available.

Beth states 8 princicples that have motivated and guided LifeBio:

  1. Every person’s unique life experience should be acknowledged and celebrated.
  2. All people, ...should be given the opportunity to pass on wisdom and values,..
  3. People of all ages and backgrounds learn about themselves ...by telling and sharing life stories.
  4. Life story questions must be meaningful and complete to ensure people’s stories are rich...
  5. Every opportunity to involve families, volunteers, and youth in hearing and recording ...
  6. When it comes to life stories, each person chooses what they wish to share or not share.
  7. Sharing our stories helps all of us continue to learn, grow, and plan for the future.
  8. Life story preservation is critical. ...ensure a lasting legacy ...honor the person’s journey."
