Dialogue: Honoring Anne Frank

In this Dialogue honoring the 70th anniversary of the death of Anne Frank in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, host Marcia Franklin takes a look back at a 1996 speech by Miep Gies in Boise. Gies was one of the protectors of the Frank family when they were hidden in Amsterdam for two years during the Holocaust. She also saved Anne's diary. Miep was in Boise to help raise money for what would become the Idaho Anne Frank Memorial, the only memorial dedicated to Anne Frank in the United States. The program also includes comments from Hannah Pick-Goslar, a childhood friend of Anne's who was also incarcerated in Bergen-Belsen, and Cornelis Suijk, the former director of the Anne Frank House and Anne Frank Center in the USA.
