The People Anne Hid With & Those Who Helped Them

"Where there’s hope, there’s life. It fills us with fresh courage and makes us strong again."

On June 12, 1942, Anne Frank received her famous diary for her 13th birthday. About a month later, her family went into hiding from the Nazis for 2 years in a secret annex over their business in Amsterdam. Shortly after Anne's death at a concentration camp, her diary was found in the annex by the people who had helped the Franks hide; they gave it to her father, the only surviving family member. He published the first version of her diary in 1947; it has since sold over 30 million copies in 70 languages.
