The Warren Buffett and the Business of Life by Alice Schroeder was written after several biographers, journalists, and publishers approached Warren Buffett and were turned down by him to write an account of his life. Schroeder quit her six-year job as a Wall Street analyst to work full-time on the book The Warren Buffett and the Business of Life and interviewed his associates, friends, and family. Warren advised her to always choose the less flattering account if she were ever faced with a dilemma that presented two accounts of the same situation. Schroeder quit her job at Morgan Stanley in 2003 to work full-time on Buffett's biography and travelled to Omaha to live there and do the same.
