In 1942, Frank and her family went into hiding in a secret apartment behind her father’s business in German-occupied Amsterdam. The Franks were discovered in 1944 and sent to concentration camps; only Anne’s father survived. Anne Frank’s diary of her family’s time in hiding, first published in 1947, has been translated into almost 70 languages and is one of the most widely read accounts of the Holocaust. Anne Frank’s Childhood Anne Frank was born Anneliese Marie Frank in Frankfurt, Germany, on June 12, 1929, to Edith Hollander Frank (1900-45) and Otto Frank (1889-1980), a prosperous businessman. Less than four years later, in January 1933, Adolf Hitler became chancellor of Germany and he and his Nazi government ​ instituted a series of measures aimed at persecuting Germany’s Jewish citizens. Did you know? In 1960, the building at Prinsengracht 263, home to the Secret Annex, opened to the public as a museum devoted to the life of Anne Frank. Her original diary is on display there. By the fall of 1933, Otto Frank moved to Amsterdam, where he established a small but successful company that produced a gelling substance used to make jam. After staying behind in Germany with her grandmother in the city of Aachen, Anne joined her parents and sister Margot (1926-45) in the Dutch capital in February 1934. In 1935, Anne started school in Amsterdam and earned a reputation as an energetic, popular girl. In May 1940, the Germans, who had entered World War II in September of the previous year, invaded the ​ Netherlands and quickly made life increasingly restrictive and dangerous for Jewish people there. Between the summer of 1942 and September 1944, the Nazis and their Dutch collaborators deported more than 100,000 Jews in Holland to extermination camps. Anne Frank’s Family Goes into Hiding In early July 1942, after Margot Frank received a letter ordering her to report to a work camp in Germany, Anne Frank’s family went into hiding in an attic apartment behind Otto Frank’s business, located at Prinsengracht 263 in Amsterdam. In an effort to avoid detection, the family left a false trail suggesting they’d fled to Switzerland. A week after they had gone into hiding, the Franks were joined by Otto’s business associate Hermann van Pels (1898-1944), along with his wife Auguste (1900-45) and their son Peter (1926-45), who were also 7 Jewish.

  • Commemorating Anne Frank
    Commemorating Anne Frank ---Mirta Glasman Throughout the Holocaust, Jewish children documented their experiences in camps, ghettos, forests, and hiding places. While the opportuni- ties and materials to express their joys, pain, longings, anger, and sorrows in literary and artistic creations were very limited, an impressive body of work has survived, leaving a lasting legacy of both their oppression and resilience. In this article, I will share some of those stories. Part I discusses Anne Frank. Part II discusses other child diarists. Anne Frank is undoubtedly one of the most known child Holocaust diarists. She was born on 12 June 1929 in Frankfurt. The Nazis came to power in 1933. Otto and Edith Frank, Anne’s parents, no longer saw a future for their family in Germany. The same year, the family moved to Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands, where Otto had started a company named Opekta. Opekta, the product, was used in jam- making. For her thirteenth birthday, Anne Frank received a diary. ‘Maybe one of my nicest presents…’ she wrote about the red-checked book. On the cover page, she wrote: ‘I hope I will be able to confide everything to you, as I have never been able to confide in anyone, and I hope you will be a great source of comfort and support. (Anne Frank, 12 June 1942).’ Two days later, on her next entry, she wrote about the anti-Jewish measures enacted First edition of the diary and how Jews were excluded from society. Anne in her final year of Primary school, Collection: Anne Frank Also, she talked about her birthday party, her 1940.

  • Readers' Companion to the Diary of Anne Frank
    www.annefrank.com READERS’ COMPANION TO THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK © The Anne Frank Center USA Introduction Wednesday, April 5, 1944 ...I Finally realized that I must do my schoolwork to keep from being ignorant, to get on in life, to become a journalist, because that’s what I want! I know I can write... it remains to be seen whether I really have talent...I need to have something besides a husband and children to devote myself to!...I want to be useful or bring enjoyment to all people, even those I’ve never met. I want to go on living even after my death! And that’s why I’m so grateful to God for having given me this gift, which I can use to develop myself and to express all that’s inside me! When I write I can shake off all my cares. My sorrow disappears, my spirits are revived! But, and that’s a big question, will I ever be able to write something great, will I ever become a journalist or a writer? Anne Frank The Legacy of Anne Frank Anne Frank’s story succeeds because it is a personal story that enables individuals to understand one of the watershed events of our time, and because it communicates what can happen when hate and intolerance prevail. The essence of Anne Frank’s message has become a universal symbol of tolerance, strength, and hope in the face of adversity — a symbol transcending all cultures and ages and conveying the idea that discrimination and intolerance are wrong and dangerous.

    By Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett, newly adapted by Wendy Kesselman Directed by David Ira Goldstein A co-production with Arizona Theatre Company P.L.A.Y. (Performance = Literature + Art + You) Student Matinee Series 2017-18 Season Discovery Guide 1 Dear Reader: As the horror of the Holocaust fades further into the past, and the number of survivors still alive dwindles, The Diary of Anne Frank keeps alive the story of eight people who suffered through one of the historical moments we most want to remember, if only in order to avoid repeating it. With the benefit of hindsight, many things are easy to say:Nobody should have voted for Hitler; We should have welcomed more Jewish refugees into our community; I would have helped anyone hide from the Nazis. It’s tempting to look at Anne’s diary as a relic from a time completely different from our own, with horrors we would never allow to happen now. And yet, alarming parallels exist between our world today and those past events we so easily denounce. Popular political slogans echo the nationalist, isolationist values that kept so many Jewish refugees out of America during World War II. The citizens of the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union; to isolate their economy from their neighbors’ and to limit access to their country for immigrants. Families in the U.S. have been broken up by the deportation of undocumented immigrants. Synagogues and mosques have been attacked. Nazis have rallied publicly in the United States. Millions of Syrian refugees, unable to secure permission to emigrate legally, have risked their lives to reach a country where they are safe and allowed to stay.
