Sumario:The article aims to evaluate two biographical books by press professionals as instruments to rescue the history of Brazilian journalism. In the study, two works are analyzed for the performance of both in specific editorials of journalism: sports and cultural, respectively: Juca Kfouri: O militante da notícia (ALENCAR, 2006) and Tinhorão: O legendário (LORENZOTTI, 2010). Through three categories observed in the reading of the biographies - journalistic environment, spaces of belonging and legacy of the biographer -, it appears that the books highlight characteristics of the profession, prioritize the protagonist's memory and assist in the understanding of the Brazilian journalistic past. And, thus, they can serve as a brief script (albeit partial) for a biographical perspective on the history of journalism in important moments of 20th century in Brazil.
