As you may or may not be aware WordPress provides a profile page in the admin for each registered user (including the admin of course!): `http://www.example.com/wp-admin/profile.php‘
On that page you will see a number of fields that can be edited / customized including a Biographical Info
field.
To fetch and output a field from this page for a particular user you can use the get_user_meta
function like so:
$bio = get_user_meta( $user_id, $key );
$key
could be the string description
which corresponds to the Biographical Info
field.
You may want to take a look at the get_user_meta
Codex page (might be of special interest to output available data so you can correlate fields from the admin with valid $key
values based on fields content).
