# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Ernst Ingmar Bergman was born in Sweden on 14 July 1918 and spent six decades turning the camera inward, writing and directing more than 60 films that treated the psyche and the soul as legitimate dramatic territory. The Seventh Seal and Wild Strawberries, both from 1957, established him internationally; Persona in 1966 pushed form itself to the edge. He worked with a tight company of actors — Liv Ullmann, Max von Sydow, Bibi Andersson, Harriet Andersson — and shot most of his later films on the island of Fårö, forging a creative partnership with cinematographers Gunnar Fischer and Sven Nykvist. Fanny and Alexander in 1982 closed his cinema career on a softer note. He also directed more than 170 plays and led both Sweden's Royal Dramatic Theatre and Germany's Residenztheater. He died on 30 July 2007, leaving a body of work that remains profoundly personal and unavoidable.
