Ann Frank ,

Anne Frank was a German-born Jewish diarist and Holocaust victim who gained worldwide fame for her diary documenting her family's life in hiding during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands from 1942 to 1944. She and her family were arrested by the Gestapo in August 1944 and deported to concentration camps, where she died of typhus at Bergen-Belsen in early 1945. Her published diary, 'The Diary of a Young Girl,' became a classic of war literature and a powerful testament to the Holocaust.
