# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Jane Birkin started small in London, glimpsed in Antonioni's Blowup in 1966, then crossed the Channel for Slogan two years later and met Serge Gainsbourg on set. What followed was a creative and romantic partnership that made her a star in France: they released Jane Birkin/Serge Gainsbourg in 1969, and she appeared in his 1976 film Je t'aime moi non plus. She had three daughters — photographer Kate Barry, actress Charlotte Gainsbourg, and musician Lou Doillon — with three different men. After she and Gainsbourg split in 1980 she kept working steadily in French cinema and recorded solo albums, occasionally surfacing in English-language films like Death on the Nile and A Soldier's Daughter Never Cries. Hermès named a handbag after her. In 2016 she made La femme et le TGV, an Oscar-nominated short she said would be her last, and she died in Paris in July 2023.
