# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Born François-Anatole Thibault on 16 April 1844, he built a career as poet, journalist, and novelist, producing several best-sellers under the name Anatole France. His writing — ironic, skeptical, marked by nobility of style and what the Nobel committee called "a true Gallic temperament" — made him the archetypal French man of letters in his era. The Académie Française admitted him to its ranks, and in 1921 he won the Nobel Prize in Literature for achievements defined by profound human sympathy and grace. Proust is widely believed to have modeled Bergotte, the narrator's literary idol in In Search of Lost Time, on France. He died 12 October 1924.
