Having a biography written about you is kind of like having a portrait commissioned. A reputable painter can be paid to paint the sort of portrait that you want, with your gun, with your horses, land or with your flowing hair and chiseled cheekbones. Having Isaacson writing this one is part of the package is my guess. A bit early for hagiography - yet another billionaire mid-life crisis I presume?
