I think a persons history makes who they are. If you had a hard life you can’t just hope to get out of it, you have work your way out of it. If you have a good life growing up then you still have to work to keep it that way.

A person makes history. Take Mickey Mantle as an example. He was the league leader in HR’s, RBI’s, and BA in 1956, winning baseball’s Triple Crown.
Meriweather Lewis started out as just a normal kid. He then became the president’s secretary, because he knew Thomas Jefferson. He was then set on an expedition. When he came back he was famous!
In my case people make history. Because Annei Oakley was a famous sharpshooter.

I think its even. History preserves what happened when, where, how, and why. But the person decides when, where, how, why, and what when THEY want it to. Does that make sense?

For my biography person, John Muir, history made him and vice versa. He was surprised by the pollution and development of mankind and encouraged him to contribute to nature.
I think that in both ways a person can make history and history can make a person. For example, Martin Luther King Jr. made the famous speech “I Have a Dream.” This made history, but when somebody is inspired by something that happened in history, history makes a person

I think that a person makes history and history makes a person. I think this because George Washington didn’t have history make him who he was. George Washington made history. But then again history made him what he is now days. So I guess I could lean both ways depending on who the person is. So I can’t go to one side of the fence. I would be sitting right in the middle of a debate of this question.

I think history makes the person and the person makes history because they have to be inspired to become history.

Looking at other peoples history makes a person decide what they want to do. Then a person makes history. In that case a person makes history and history makes a person. Kind of like what Austin said.
