OTTO FRANK WRITES OF THE ANNE FRANK HOUSE
(Frank, Anne.) Frank, Otto. Typed letter signed, to “Frau Losa,” Decemeber 25, 1958, one
page.
Frank, (1889–1980) father of Jewish World War II diarist Anne Frank, and the only member of
his family to survive the concentration camps, writes in part (translated from the German):
I was very impressed that Mr. Navarro has them printed and I asked him in my name to
express heartfelt thanks, especially for the personal dedication of his poem in such a
beautiful form....I also thank you for your report on the theater performance and for
sending the Image. You know, I collect everything, because all the material will be
preserved later in Amsterdam in Anne Frank House. The short story in the ‘Time’ I read
at that time, of course, and I wrote you about it.”
Correspondence by Frank discussing even glancingly his work in Anne’s memory is uncommon.
