I agree with RonBee. Your resume tells the interviewer about your past employment and qualifications. This question is to find about more about yourself, family etc. it helps to 'round off/up the picture of the applicant' to see it you will fit in with the organisation. If you cannot hold a conversation about yourself.... you see what I mean?
