Results

On the right side of the page is a list of all the documents about that person by type: biography, photo, audio, video, news articles, websites, magazine articles, etc.
This list will change depending on what is available for that person.
The rest of the page is separated by those content type categories with a previews of 3 articles of each kind. To see all the documents, click on the title of the content type you wish to look at.
