Life sketch, briefly (3)

I believe the answer is:

bio

(Other definitions for bio that I've seen before include "Life story (abbr)" , "Prefix or combining form meaning of living things" , "A life's work" , "Prefix denotes living things" , "Prefix denoting life" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
