Pictogram Posters - Infogrpahics outline the lives of famous people

I love an infographic. They're simple, informative and you kind of get it straight away. People like David McCandleness and Nicolas Felton have specialised in making information beautiful. 

Although these examples below aren't a great example of large boring bits of data or text turned into a simple infographic, they are a great piece of creative and snapshot into each person's life.
