FEATURED ITEM Woman Who Hid Anne Frank and Family
GIES, MIEP (1909-2010) One of the more renowned Dutch citizens who, during World War II, hid Anne Frank and her family from the Nazis. She discovered and preserved Anne Frank's diary after the Franks were arrested. In 1994, Gies was awarded the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany; in 1995 she received the Yad Vashem medal and, in 1977, she was knighted by Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands. In her autobiography, Miep Gies observed: "I stand at the end of the long, long line of good Dutch people who did what I did or more -- much more -- during those dark and terrible times years ago, but always like yesterday in the hearts of those of us who bear witness. Never a day goes by that I do not think of what happened to them." Excellent content Typewritten Letter Signed, one page, 2008, on Anne Frank House letterhead. Comments on what she felt compelled to do and stating that she was not a heroine. Fine. $ 225
