Gillian Perry was the Co-founder and, for 26 years, the Executive Director of the Anne Frank Trust United Kingdom. Through her work with the Trust, she had the opportunity to meet people who knew Anne. Gillian will share the story of Anne’s life, including her family's background in Frankfurt and their flight to Amsterdam after the Nazis took power.
This lecture also covers the remarkable story of how Anne’s magical thread has woven itself around the world. From the hard-fought publication of Anne’s diary in 1947 (and how it so nearly didn’t happen), to the creation by Otto Frank of the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam.
Gillian's talk will be appropriate for adults and children 12+. Parents and grandparents are encouraged to bring the next generation.
This program is supported by the Ilona Irene Rosenschein Holocaust Education Fund.
It will be available by Live Stream.
Thursday, July 16 | 7 - 8 pm | FREE
