# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Born Georges Charles Clement Ghislain Pire on 10 February 1910, he entered the Dominican order and took the name Dominique. After World War II ended, he focused on refugees scattered across Europe — the stateless, the waiting, the ones no country wanted. That work, concrete and sustained, brought him the Nobel Peace Prize in 1958. In December of that year he delivered his Nobel lecture, "Brotherly Love: Foundation of Peace." He died on 30 January 1969.
