Nan Colton Presents: MIEP GIES - REMEMBERING ANNE FRANK

In the characterization of Miep Gies, Nan Colton tells a story of heart-breaking courage and resolve. Miep Gies illuminates the dark times of German occupied Holland of 1940’s. She remembers the day-to-day events in her life, as she became the key link for the Frank family while in hiding from the Nazis. She remembers who and what inspired her. . . Anne Frank and her family faced the threat of discovery and death every day while living in the Secret Annex. Despite terrible circumstances, however, Anne Frank’s strength of spirit comes through in her diary. "...I still believe, in spite of everything," she wrote while in hiding, "that people are truly good at heart." Anne was one of millions of people during the Holocaust who found the courage to get through each day. Miep tells of those days.
