name: "Ernest Hemingway"
slug: "ernest-hemingway"
description: "The prose stripped to bone, the life lived at full tilt — Hemingway made both a style and a performance, and American writing bent toward his example. Novels that became syllabus fixtures, a Nobel, a public persona built on bullfights and wars and hard drinking, then the shotgun in Idaho."

# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Raised in suburban Oak Park, Illinois, he broke for The Kansas City Star after high school, then drove ambulances on the Italian Front in World War I until shrapnel tore through him in 1918. By 1921 he'd landed in Paris as a foreign correspondent for the Toronto Star, falling in with the Lost Generation expatriates who pushed him toward the lean modernist line that became his signature. The Sun Also Rises arrived in 1926, followed by A Farewell to Arms in 1929, both mined from the war years. He spent the 1930s in Key West, then Havana, covering the Spanish Civil War in 1937 — which fed For Whom the Bell Tolls in 1940 — and riding with Allied troops as a journalist through Normandy and the liberation of Paris in World War II. The Old Man and the Sea won the Pulitzer in 1952; the Nobel came in 1954, the same year two plane crashes in Africa left him broken and in chronic pain. He died by his own hand in Ketchum, Idaho, in 1961.
