Anne Frank Private Photo Album Exhibit Now Open

Boise, Idaho- - Boise State University is temporarily hosting the traveling exhibition "Anne Frank: A Private Photo Album."

The display is part of a collection of personal photos taken by Anne Frank's father, Otto.  The exhibition features more than 70 black and white photos taken before the family went into hiding from the Nazis.

"This exhibition and these photographs, I think, really communicate how real of people these people really were," said Holly Gilchrist, with BSU student activities.

The exhibition is part of several events planned in honor of human rights month. On Sept. 29, at 7 p.m. in the Morrison Center, holocaust survivor Gerda Weissmann Klein will speak about her experiences.

The Anne Frank exhibit is free and will run through mid October.
