Biography Central
Biography Central (formerly BioEpic) is a podcast in which we invite you to join us deep in the basement of Kensington Central Library in London, amongst the shelves of our unique Special Collection of Biographies. Here you will find around 90,000 biographical books spanning 200 years of publishing awaiting your perusal. In each episode we will focus on a particular biography and learn about a fascinating person and their impact on our world. Staff from Kensington Central Library and regular guests will whet your appetite to learn more about a range of individuals from all walks of life.
