Otto Heinrich "Pim" Frank (12 May 1889 – 19 August 1980) was a German-born Swiss businessman. He was the father of Anne Frank and Margot Frank. As the sole member of his family to survive the Holocaust, he inherited Anne's manuscripts after her death, arranged for the publication of her diary as The Diary of a Young Girl in 1947, and oversaw its transition to the stage and screen.
Otto Frank was born in Frankfurt to a Jewish family. He was the second son of Alice Betty (née Stern) and Michael Frank. His siblings were Robert Frank, Herbert Frank and Helene (Leni) Frank. Otto was a cousin of the well known furniture designer Jean-Michel Frank, and a grandson of Zacharias Frank. He studied economics in Heidelberg from 1908 to 1909 and had a work experience placement at Macy’s Department Store in New York.
Frank served in the Imperial German Army during the First World War. He was called up for military service in August 1915 and after training at a depot in Mainz he served in an artillery unit on the Western Front in which most soldiers were mathematicians and surveyors. He was attached to the infantry as a range-finder at the Battle of the Somme in 1916 and in 1917 he was promoted in the field to lieutenant and then served at the Battle of Cambrai.
Annelies Marie Frank (German pronunciation: [ʔanəliːs maˈʁiː ˈʔanə ˈfʁaŋk]; Dutch pronunciation: [ʔɑnəˈlis maːˈri ˈʔɑnə ˈfrɑŋk]; 12 June 1929 – February or March 1945) was a German-born diarist and writer. She is one of the most discussed Jewish victims of the Holocaust. Her diary, The Diary of a Young Girl, which documents her life in hiding during the German occupation of the Netherlands in World War II, is one of the world's most widely known books and has been the basis for several plays and films.
Born in the city of Frankfurt, Germany, she lived most of her life in or near Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Born a German national, Frank lost her citizenship in 1941 and thus became stateless. The Frank family moved from Germany to Amsterdam in the early 1930s when the Nazis gained control over Germany. By May 1940, they were trapped in Amsterdam by the German occupation of the Netherlands. As persecutions of the Jewish population increased in July 1942, the family went into hiding in some concealed rooms behind a bookcase in the building where Anne's father worked. In August 1944, the group was betrayed and transported to concentration camps. Anne and her sister, Margot, were eventually transferred to Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, where they allegedly died (probably of typhus) in February or March 1945, just weeks before the camp was liberated in April.

Genres: Crime,First 15 minutes of this dutch documentary, made in 2010. To order a dvd of the complete movie please contact Mrs. Kroon at Pieter van Huystee Producties in The Netherlands: curien@pvhfilm.nl After more than a year almost 250 comments were posted. A small percentage of the posts are plainly antisemitic. I chose not to remove the sick, disgusting and frustrated prose of those "neo-nazi's" because in my opinion one should not neglect the underlying warning they reveal: genocide can happen again.

OTTO FRANK, FATHER OF ANNE, released in honor of the 50th anniversary of Anne Frank House, tells the story of Anne Frank's father, his discovery of her diary and its road to publication. After returning from Auschwitz, Otto Frank, the only survivor of the family, is confronted with Anne's diary. He renews ties with his daughter by reading it. David de Jongh's documentary film draws on a wealth of archival footage and interviews to tell Otto's story of how the loss of his family scarred his life, how he dealt with the dilemmas that the publication of the diary brought upon him and how he made a memorial of his daughters legacy and became the father-figure for thousands of young readers
This is one of the few television interviews Otto Frank gave. Sitting in one of the rooms of the Secret Annex, he is talking about his surprise at the things Anne Frank wrote in her diary. Her thoughts on life, her self-criticism: this was not the daughter he had known Otto was the only member of his family to survive the holocaust. When he returned, Miep Gies gave him his daughters diary. She had saved it after the people in hiding had been arrested. After reading it, Otto Frank decided to publish the diary. As he puts it: To build up a future you have to know the past. The video is an excerpt from the television program The Legacy of Anne Frank, which was part of the series The Eternal Light by the Jewish Theological Seminary of America & NBC. It was broadcast on 24 December 1967...
A video filmed from the BBC Website with Otto Frank, Anne Frank's Father. I have deleted several offensive comments left on the comments section by viewers. `i believe that people are entitled to their opinion but I don't feel that this is the place for this. I have also had several people deny that the diary was written by anne frank- it is probably important to read the wikipedia entry before you come to this opinion! You would be amazed how many people deny the holocaust. Apparently it is illegal to do so in Germany. To quote (http://www.jimloy.com/history/holocaus.htm) Of course the Holocaust happened. It has been proven, many times over. But some people, American Nazis for example, claim that it never happened. It is easy to say things that are not true. It is easy to believe...

He survived the Holocaust, but his beloved wife Edith and his daughters Margot and Anne didn’t.
