Thank you to all of our who joined us for an inspiring afternoon with Meeg Pincus, author of Miep and the Most Famous Diary: The Woman Who Rescued Anne Frank’s Diary.

The story of Anne Frank and her diary is one the world’s best known. But less is known about Miep Gies, who showed exemplary moral courage and took great risks to shelter Anne and her family, and ultimately rescued Anne’s diary from Nazi clutches. This is Miep’s story. This special program is for all ages. School groups are welcome.
