    Anne Frank:

    Tracing Some of Her Forebears Back 600 Years


     


    Speaker: Karen S. Franklin 


    Sunday January 2026

    9:30 AM – 10:00 AM 

    Schmear, Schmooze, and Share

    10 AM Program begins

    on ZOOM


    To understand Anne Frank’s family, identified widely as a Frankfurt family that fled to Amsterdam in the 1930s, one needs a more detailed study of Anne’s “annecestors” who lived throughout Germany in prior centuries. In this talk, Karen S. Franklin delves into this history. The talk will divulge details about Anne's forebears, including Rabbi Abraham Frank, and colorful stories such as a practical joke played in the 1600s by another ancestor of Anne's, recorded in the memoirs of Glueckl of Hameln. The shocking discovery of the fate of Anne’s forebears some 600 years before she was murdered casts her fate in the larger context of Jewish historical experience.


    BIo:  Karen S. Franklin is Director of Family Research at the Leo Baeck Institute, a position she has held for over 30 years. She has served as chair of the Council of American Jewish Museums, chair of ICMEMO, the Memorial Museums Committee of the International Council of Museums (ICOM), president of the International Association of Jewish Genealogical Societies (IAJGS), and as co-chair of the Board of Governors of JewishGen. In 2019 she received the Lifetime Achievement Award of IAJGS

    In 2012, she received a Service Citation from ICOM-US, the national committee of the ICOM, for her work in Nazi-era looted art restitution.
