Select a biography (a life history) of a famous person from American history. Explain the persons personality development from one theoretical domain which we have covered. Devote the first page on explaining the persons life (briefly) and what attracted you to choose him/her. Devote the next four pages explaining how life events and personality dynamics led to his or her fame. (pretend you are a clinical psychologist!). It will be hard to condense your discussion to four pages, so be concise.
