The Many Lives of Anne Frank - Turning 97

June 12th marks Anne Frank’s birthday, and it was on her 13th birthday that she received the diary that would later become one of the most widely read books in the world. Anne Frank remains one of the most recognizable voices in Jewish history, and one of the most misunderstood. In this bonus episode sponsored by the Jewish Lives series from Yale University Press, Schwab walks Yael through Ruth Franklin's The Many Lives of Anne Frank. They trace the full arc of her life, the multiple versions of the diary, and the choices her father Otto made in assembling the text the world came to know. In this powerful episode, Schwab and Yael wrestle with the bigger questions her legacy raises about how we remember the Holocaust.
