# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Born in Edinburgh in 1930, Connery originated the role of 007 in Dr. No (1962) and carried the franchise through six Eon productions—From Russia with Love, Goldfinger, Thunderball, You Only Live Twice, Diamonds Are Forever—before returning once more in Never Say Never Again (1983). Beyond Bond he worked steadily for Hitchcock, Lumet, and Huston, appearing in Marnie, The Hill, Murder on the Orient Express, and The Man Who Would Be King. Later roles stretched from Highlander and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade to The Hunt for Red October and The Rock. His turn as a Chicago cop in The Untouchables won him the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor in 1987, making him the first Scot to take home a major Academy Award. He died in October 2020, knighted and garlanded, half a century after walking onto that Jamaican beach.
