businessman who served in the German army during World War One. In the face of the
Nazis’ rising anti-Semitism, Otto moved his family to Amsterdam in the autumn of 1933.
There, he ran a company that sold spices and pectin for use in the manufacture of jam.
Anne’s diary was a 13th birthday present Anne received the diary for which she became
famous on 12 June 1942, just a few weeks before her family went into hiding. Her father had taken
her to pick out the red, checked autograph book on 11 June and she began writing in it on 14
June .
The first version (A) began in the autograph book that she received for her 13th birthday
and spilled over into at least two notebooks. However, since the last entry in the
autograph book is dated 5 December 1942 and the first entry in the first of these
notebooks is dated 22 December 1943, it is assumed that other volumes were lost.
