Anne Frank, born on June 12, 1929, in Frankfurt, Germany, was a Jewish girl who gained posthumous fame through her diary, “The Diary of a Young Girl.” Her family moved to Amsterdam in 1933 to escape Nazi persecution and went into hiding in 1942. During this time, Anne documented her thoughts and experiences. In 1944, the family was betrayed and sent to concentration camps, where Anne died of typhus in 1945. Her father, Otto Frank, survived and published her diary in 1947. The diary has since become a poignant and enduring account of the Holocaust and human resilience.
