# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Winifred Jacqueline Fraser Bisset was born 13 September 1944 in England and entered film in 1965, landing three breakout roles in 1968: The Detective, Bullitt, and The Sweet Ride, the last earning her a Golden Globe nomination as Most Promising Newcomer. The 1970s ran long for her — Airport, Day for Night (which took the Foreign Language Oscar), Murder on the Orient Express, The Deep, a string of thrillers and comedies that kept her employed across Hollywood and Europe. She moved easily between English, French, and Italian productions, racking up more nominations (Golden Globes for Who Is Killing the Great Chefs of Europe? and Under the Volcano, a CableACE nod for Forbidden, a César nomination for La Cérémonie, an Emmy nomination for Joan of Arc) without breaking through to marquee-name status. She finally won hardware in 2013 — a Golden Globe for the BBC miniseries Dancing on the Edge — and continued working into her seventies with Welcome to New York, Backstabbing for Beginners, and Birds of Paradise. France named her a Chevalier of the Legion of Honour in 2010, a recognition that fits: she's always been more appreciated than famous.
