Testimony of Anne Frank’s Stepsister to launch on March 10 for Women’s History Month
CINCINNATI (March 7, 2024) – Visitors of the Nancy & David Wolf Holocaust & Humanity Center will have the opportunity to ask questions to Eva Schloss, the posthumous stepsister of Anne Frank, in honor of Women’s History Month.
Schloss will be featured in our Dimensions in Testimony Exhibit, a virtual intelligence exhibit designed to preserve dialogue between Holocaust survivors and learners far into the future. This cutting-edge exhibit is an initiative of the USC Shoah Foundation, founded by Steven Spielberg.
Schloss’ family met the Frank family in Amsterdam, where they were neighbors before the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands. Schloss survived Auschwitz, and after the war she and her mother reconnected with Otto Frank, Anne’s father, who her mother later married.
Schloss’ testimony will be available in our museum beginning March 10, as part of our Women’s History Month Tour & Museum Experience, a guided tour focused on women’s experiences during the Holocaust. The tour will occur from 1:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. Eva will remain featured in the museum through the spring of 2024.
The Nancy & David Wolf Holocaust & Humanity Center is open Thursdays through Mondays, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more information about visiting the Nancy & David Wolf Holocaust & Humanity Center, visit https://www.holocaustandhumanity.org/plan-your-visit/
