A memoir is more about one career, as opposed to an autobiography, which is mainly personal. A memoir is usually about a person's career and not so much about their personal life a as an autobiography would be. A memoir is about how someone remembers their life to be and what accomplishments they have made. An autobiography focuses on a person's life usually in chronological order of life events. A memoir would focus on the details of those events.
They are both books about first-hand memories of events. An autobiography is a biography of the person writing it. All autobiographies could have the title "The Story of My Life". A memoir, on the other hand, is not about the author, even though it contains first-hand memories of events. The focus is on other more famous people or things caught up in the author's life.
So, if you want to know about the life of Santa Claus, you could either read his autobiography, "The Story of My Life", by Santa Claus, or a memoir, "350 Years in Santa's Workshop" by one of the elves.
