Who Betrayed Anne Frank? Amsterdam, the Netherlands, 1941 Footsteps in the house, in the private office, kitchen, then ... on our staircase, no one breathed audibly now . . . then a rattling of the swinging cupboard. This moment is indescribable..Now we are lost! Anne Frank, diary entry, April 9, 1944, about a false alarm of being discovered

Anne Frank (pictured here in 1941) went into hiding with her family on July 6, 1942. Her father owned a small business at 263 Prinsengracht in Amsterdam. The family lived in hidden rooms above the businessthe Secret Annex. On August 4, 1944, a German police officer, assisted by Dutch police, arrested the Franks and four others hiding with them, after receiving an anonymous telephone tip. Only Annes father survived the war. The identity and motivation of the betrayerseeking a monetary reward? acting from pro-Nazi conviction? holding a personal grudge? hating Jews?remain a mystery. No one was ever prosecuted. Credit: Anne Frank Fonds/Anne Frank House via Getty Images
