There are a lot of good biographies out there.

Going back to ancient history, Phillip Freeman's biographies of Alexander the Great and Caesar are both well worth reading. Goldsworthy's "Caesar: Life of a Collossus" is also well worth reading.

Walter Isaacson's biographies of Ben Franklin and Einstein were pretty good.

I liked David McCullough's biography of John Adams. His biography on Truman was also quite good
