Expert summary
Anne Frank was the Jewish girl who shot to international fame posthumously, following the publication of her diary documenting her experiences hiding from the Nazis for two years during the Second World War. Anne and her family moved to Amsterdam in 1933 after the Nazis came to power. As persecutions against the Jewish people escalated, the family went into hiding in 1942, and hid for two years in hidden rooms in her father Otto Frank’s office. Two years later they were betrayed and led to concentration camps. Anne died of typhus seven months later in Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. Her sister had died a few days before that. Otto Frank alone survived and he retrieved and published Anne’s diary.
