The session will shed light on Anne's family background and reveal little known details of Anne's childhood, as shared in personal testimony by her last remaining relative, cousin Buddy Elias, exclusively for the MOT. We will debunk some of the myths about Anne, and challenge the ways in which her story has been misappropriated or misunderstood. We will also examine rare artifacts and discover fascinating connections between Anne Frank and the U.S. The session goes on to address the period after the arrest, imprisonment and deportation of the Frank family and those in hiding with them. We shall investigate who betrayed them, what happened to them and how the world came to know who arrested them. Inspecting Anne's writings from the archives of the Anne Frank Fonds in Switzerland and the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam, we shall gain a better understanding of what constitutes Anne Frank's diary as we know it today.
