# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Arthur Asher Miller was born October 17, 1915, and became one of the defining voices of 20th-century American theater. All My Sons arrived in 1947, but it was Death of a Salesman two years later—now considered among the best American plays of the century—that secured him a Pulitzer Prize for Drama and a permanent place in the canon. The Crucible followed in 1953, then A View from the Bridge in 1955. Through the late 1940s and 1950s he was rarely out of the public eye: he testified before the House Un-American Activities Committee during the Red Scare, married Marilyn Monroe, and wrote the screenplay for The Misfits in 1961. The awards kept coming late—the Jerusalem Prize in 2003, the Prince of Asturias in 2002, the Praemium Imperiale in 2001—before he died February 10, 2005.
