&nbsp;&nbsp;Writing literary biographies basically involves the art of re-presenting ever changing human spirit in confining languages. Thus biographers usually readanalyse, and select numerous data to revitalize the life of the writer they are trying to explore. In the process, biographers, in some way or other, are involved in every detail of the writer&quot;s life. Depending on the relationship biographers have with the writer, the description of the writer&quot;s character and the whole picture of the writer is entirely different.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;Various biographies on Cather were published after her death and each biography reflects the biographer&quot;s preconception on Cather. This paper is to trace different faces of Cather depicted by three biographers whose opinions mainly reflect cultural ideologies of the society they have lived. Brown&quot;s depiction of Cather shows the heavy influence of 1950s conservative ideology on women. The interest on self-actualization and self-assertion which Woodress&quot;s Cather strongly shows reflects 1970s cultural ideologies like gay liberation movement. O&quot;Brien&quot;s Cather shows her confidence as a writer by openly accepting her identity as a woman and a lesbian.
