What it is

One person in the society’s leadership. Built: A, 4:5 portrait beside the bio (round 3). Photo on top on a phone; a 15rem column from 48rem, 18rem from 62rem. --no-photo drops the media column when no portrait exists.

When to use

  • Use it on /society-leadership, one article per leader.
  • Use it when one person’s biography is the content of the band.

When not to use

  • A member in a directory: use the Member card.
  • A member’s own page: use the Recognition plate.
  • A team of three or more leaders that link to bio pages: a media Card is the planned form.
  • A short statement from a person: use the Quote.

Rules

  • Markup: <article class="hs-leader"> with img.hs-leader__photo first, then .hs-leader__body with .hs-leader__head (name, role), the bio in .hs-prose, then the routes.
  • Use h2 for the name when the band opens with it; otherwise h3, by the outline.
  • The photo is a 4:5 rectangle (width="400" height="500"), never a circle. House style keeps people photos rectangular.
  • Put no honor-gold rule under the name. Honor gold marks a member’s recognition, not a job title.
  • Routes: a .hs-link-list or one .hs-link, each with data-ph-capture-attribute-cta and data-ph-capture-attribute-cta-loc.
  • No portrait: add hs-leader--no-photo and leave out the img. Without the modifier, the body lands in the 15rem photo column from 48rem.
  • Never fill the photo’s place with initials, a silhouette or a stock image. The text alone is the calmer form. Switch to the photo form when a real portrait exists.
  • /society-leadership has no portrait today: it uses --no-photo.

Accessibility

  • Use <article aria-labelledby> that points to the name id.
  • The photo alt names the person, because the photo is the first thing in the article. --no-photo has no image, so the name heading opens the article.
  • Contrast: name navy 12.4:1; role slate 6.2:1; bio ink 13.0:1.
  • The photo takes loading="lazy".

Variants

Leader profile

The person is a fictional sample; real copy comes from /society-leadership. Use h2 for the name when the band opens with it.
