Bridget's feedback:

"Your writing style is dynamic and engaging, making for an enjoyable reading experience that, in its lucidity, also informs. While I initially baulked at the presence of "resplendent" in the first sentence, the admiring tone is borne out by consistent diction and the substance of the biographical details you've curated here; with some remaining reservations about the hagiographic flavor of the word, I leave the decision to use it up to you.

My main recommendation is to make sure the essay is structured through paragraphing, as the copy I read today is one long paragraph. Your overall discussion suggests transitions and topic sentences that would suit a paragraphed piece of writing, so this may be a matter of cleaning up some file formatting. (Related, do make sure all titles are italicized, as appropriate.)"
