# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Born July 24, 1897, Amelia Earhart flew as a passenger across the Atlantic in 1928 — the first woman to make the crossing by air. Four years later, in 1932, she did it alone, nonstop, earning the Distinguished Flying Cross and a claim no one could take. She wrote best-sellers about flying, promoted commercial aviation when it was still a gamble, and helped found the Ninety-Nines for female pilots. On July 2, 1937, somewhere over the Pacific on an attempt to circle the globe, her plane went silent. She was declared dead in 1939, but the search never really stopped.
