# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Shirley Temple started in films at three and by 1934, with Bright Eyes, became the top box-office draw in America. She won a special Juvenile Academy Award in February 1935 and held that commercial throne through 1938, though her appeal dimmed as she aged; her last picture, A Kiss for Corliss, came in 1949. Twenty years later she began a diplomatic career, appointed to the U.S. Mission at the United Nations in 1969, then named Ambassador to Ghana and later the first female Chief of Protocol. She published her autobiography, Child Star, in 1988, then served as ambassador to Czechoslovakia from 1989 to 1992. The American Film Institute placed her 18th among the greatest female screen legends of classic Hollywood.
