Eighty years after her death, Anne Frank still lives on through her diary
In March 1945, Anne Frank died of typhus at the age of 15 in Germany’s Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. The Jewish teenager’s account of her final years became a global phenomenon following the publication of the diary she kept while hiding from Nazi persecution in Amsterdam. Since its first release in 1947, Anne Frank’s diary has become one of the most widely read books in the world.
