Teenage diarist of the Holocaust whose words outlived war
Anne Frank was a Jewish teenager whose diary chronicled her life in hiding during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands. Her writing has become one of the world's most widely read accounts of the Holocaust and a powerful symbol of resilience and hope.
Anne Frank attended a Montessori school in Amsterdam from the age of 3 until the Nazi regime barred Jewish children from attending in 1941. She later enrolled at the Jewish Lyceum.
