Summary of this tutorial:

For this tutorial we will be using the Author Bio Box plugin found here:

wordpress.org/plugins/author-bio-box/

With the plugin installed and activated you will need to go under Settings, Author Bio Box to configure the plugin's settings.

Decide on which content you want to display the bio box and the plugin can show the box wherever you decide.

You can also decide the background color, text color, gravatar size, border, ect.
