looking for non breaking hyphen

Is there a hyphen entity that behaves like the non-breaking space
(&nbsp;) or is there a DSSSL solution?

When I output the following into a three column catalogue format:

...
<mrcb100-a>Kantorowicz, Hermann Ulrich,</mrcb100-a>
<mrcb100-d>1877-1940.</mrcb100-d>
...

the result is this:

Kantorowicz, Hermann Ulrich, 1877-
1940.

I would like to keep both years together on one line:

Kantorowicz, Hermann Ulrich, 
1877-1940.

Normally you would use the &nbsp; to keep two words together, is there a
way to do the same using a hyphen?
