My Friend Anne Frank: Dina Kraft in Conversation with Ruth Franklin

Jun 12, 2023

Join journalist Dina Kraft with award-winning biographer Ruth Franklin for a special conversation about Anne Frank and her childhood friend, Hannah Pick-Goslar, on what would have been Frank’s 94th birthday — and Pick-Goslar’s stunning new memoir, My Friend Anne Frank. Completed just before she passed away last October at the age of 93, beautifully channeled and expertly ghostwritten by Kraft, My Friend Anne Frank is a tribute to the power of friendship through one of history’s darkest moments. It is also a celebration of a vibrant girlhood cut tragically short. Hear Kraft and Franklin on the book’s composition, Pick-Goslar’s profoundly moving account of her friend, the importance of hearing the stories of Holocaust survivors before they disappear, and more.
