StoryAnne Frank, 1929-1945
Anne Frank was a German-born Jew who became one of the most well-known victims of the Holocaust after a journal she kept while hiding became a huge success after being posthumously published as The Diary of a Young Girl. The diary gives a raw and real look into the life of Jews in Nazi Germany, but what is most shocking is her strength of character and unbelievable maturity for a young girl at the time of writing (just 13 when she started, and 15 at the end of her short life.) A consistent theme throughout her entries is the importance for women to have a voice.
