Thank you, Ron, hello List,

Frank, Anne (1929-45), German diarist, born in Frankfurt am Main. In
1933 she and her family, who were Jewish, left Nazi Germany and settled
in Amsterdam. In July 1942 they and four other exiles went into hiding
in the sealed-off back rooms of an Amsterdam office building in order to
avoid arrest by German occupation forces. In August 1944 their hiding
place was revealed, and they were taken into custody. Anne died in the
German concentration camp at Belsen less than one year later. Her Dutch
diary, describing with humor and tenderness her two arduous years in
seclusion, was found in the hiding place. Published in 1947 as Het
Achterhuis (The House Behind), it appeared (1952) in the U.S. as Anne
Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl. It was dramatized for the stage under
the title The Diary of Anne Frank in 1956 and filmed in 1959."Frank,
Anne,"
