Anne Frank(1929-1945)
- Writer
Born in Germany in 1929 and raised and raised in Germany and Amsterdam. In 1942, shortly after receiving a diary for her 13th birthday, she and her family were forced to go into hiding to escape Hitler's persecution of the Jews. Hiding with another family and a dentist in an annex behind the building in which her father worked, Anne recorded their lives in her diary almost daily. In addition, she recorded her fights with her mother, her budding relationship with the other family's son, and her own maturation. In 1944, the eight people were discovered and arrested by the Gestapo. They were separated and put in concentration camps. At age 15, Anne died there in March, 1945. Her mother and sister, as well as the other people living with them, also died. Only her father survived; on his return home, he found her diary untouched and had it published in 1947. It was an immediate success, as millions of readers were touched by her indomitable spirit in the face of such chaos. The diary is famous even to this day and was the inspiration for the Broadway play "The Diary of Anne Frank" in 1955. The play was adapted by first time in The Diary of Anne Frank (1959), followed by Anne Frank's Diary (1999), The Diary of Anne Frank (1995) and The Diary of Anne Frank (2016). It inspired four TV movies, The Diary of Anne Frank (1962), The Diary of Anne Frank (1985), The Diary of Anne Frank (1967) and The Diary of Anne Frank (1980). The diary also inspired the mini series The Diary of Anne Frank (1987), The Attic: The Hiding of Anne Frank (1988), Anne Frank: The Whole Story (2001) and The Diary of Anne Frank (2009). In addition, her life inspired Forget Me Not: The Anne Frank Story (1996) (about a Neo Nazi who back in time to meet Anne), My Best Friend Anne Frank (2021) and Mi ricordo Anna Frank (2009) (about her relation with her close friend Hannah Goslar), My Daughter, Anne Frank (2015) (about the relation between Anne and her father Otto) and Where Is Anne Frank (2021), based on the eponymous graphic novel, as well as the biographic documentary Anne Frank Remembered (1995) and Anne Frank, Then and Now (2014).
