The show originally ran in <a href="/wiki/Broadcast_syndication" title="Broadcast syndication">syndication</a> in 1962–1964, and in 1979, on <a href="/wiki/A%26E_(TV_channel)" class="mw-redirect" title="A&amp;E (TV channel)">A&amp;E</a> from 1987 to 2006, and on The Biography Channel (later Bio, now <a href="/wiki/FYI_(American_TV_channel)" title="FYI (American TV channel)">FYI</a>) from 2006 to 2012. After a five-year hiatus, the franchise was relaunched in 2017. Over the years, the <i>Biography</i> media franchise has expanded domestically and internationally, spinning off several cable television channels, a website, a children's program, a line of books and records, and a series of made-for-TV movies, specials, and miniseries, among other media properties. <i>Biography</i> has won a <a href="/wiki/Peabody_Award" class="mw-redirect" title="Peabody Award">Peabody Award</a> (1962) and three <a href="/wiki/Emmy_Awards" title="Emmy Awards">Emmy Awards</a> (1997, 1999, 2002). </p><p><i>Biography</i> began as an early 1960s syndicated television series produced by <a href="/wiki/David_L._Wolper" title="David L. Wolper">David Wolper</a> and narrated by <a href="/wiki/Mike_Wallace" title="Mike Wallace">Mike Wallace</a>. It won a Peabody Award, launched Wallace's journalism career, and became a standard in biography films, widely shown in classrooms. After a one-year revival in 1979, the show returned on A&amp;E Networks in 1987. In 1990, A&amp;E began producing new episodes, and expanded the show into a multimedia franchise. By the turn of the century, <i>Biography</i> became A&amp;E's "flagship" program, winning three Emmy Awards, growing from one night per week to seven, and spawning its own cable television channel, several spin-off shows, a website, made-for-TV movies, mini-series, books, audio books, records, and even a board game. The show's ratings eventually slipped and its airtime was reduced to one night per week, then exclusive to The Biography Channel (now FYI). Production of new episodes ceased in 2011 and <i>Biography</i> was almost entirely off the air by 2012. In 2017, A&amp;E relaunched the <i>Biography</i> franchise with a series of TV specials and miniseries.
