Three Generations by Dayan Grunfeld (I believe it extends into the 20th century….)
Rav Breuer: His Life and His Legacy (Feldheim)
Might one expand beyond rabbonim?
For ex., the excellent, recent, bio of Dr. Raphael Moller–MD, תלמיד חכם, and KAJ’s president.
…and of course Rabbi YY Weinberg.
Well, the current bio is not perfect, but it’s something.
This is a fascinating, brief piece on him.

Is the Artscroll Bio on Rav Hirsch accurate (enough)?

Yes, I believe it even has the approval of our own Rabbi Dr. Miller.
It is a top-rate Artscroll bio–obviously, not an academic book, but very well-written.
