# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Elizabeth Miller modeled in New York in the 1920s, then left for Paris and turned the camera around, building a name in fashion and fine-art photography. When World War II broke out, she talked her way into correspondent credentials with Vogue and covered the London Blitz, the liberation of Paris, and the concentration camps at Buchenwald and Dachau. For decades her work sat in boxes, uncredited and mostly forgotten. Her son found the prints years later and began showing them, and the record finally bent toward her: not just a muse or a model, but a photographer who aimed the lens where it hurt.
