Anne Frank

A German-born Jewish girl who lived in a secret annex in Amsterdam, Netherlands, for about two years with her family and others to escape persecution by Nazi Germany. During this time, she kept a diary, which was later published as "The Diary of a Young Girl" (Het Achterhuis). On August 4, 1944, the annex was discovered and she was arrested. After being taken to Auschwitz-Birkenau, she was transferred to the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, where she died at the age of 15. After her death, her diary was published worldwide and became one of the key records symbolizing the Holocaust and the persecution of Jewish people by the Nazis.
