# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Born in Allegheny, Pennsylvania, in 1844, Mary Stevenson Cassatt spent most of her adult life in France, where she befriended Edgar Degas and began exhibiting with the Impressionists. She focused her work on the social and private lives of women, returning again and again to the intimate bonds between mothers and children. In 1879, Diego Martelli compared her to Degas for the way both sought to capture movement, light, and design in a distinctly modern sense; Gustave Geffroy later named her one of "les trois grandes dames" of Impressionism alongside Marie Bracquemond and Berthe Morisot. Beyond her own canvases, she became a crucial bridge, introducing Impressionism to American collectors through her friendship with the Havemeyer family. She died in France in 1926.
