Patricia Posner

I am London born, having spent half my life in Britain and half in the United States.
For thirty years I have worked on 12 books of investigative historical nonfiction with my husband, bestselling author Gerald Posner. On those projects, I conduct every interview with him, sift through thousands of pages of original documents in government and private archives, and work on the early drafts of manuscripts and also the editing. As a 2009 St. Petersburg Times profile of Gerald correctly noted: "Trisha Posner works with him on his books and joins him in his interviews, but refuses co-author credit."

I have always been greatly interested in the history surrounding World War II and the Holocaust. I had been long been fascinated by the mostly untol

Eva Schloss

From Wikipedia: "People Associated with Anne Frank" -

Eva Geiringer shared a remarkably similar history with Anne. The Geiringers lived on the opposite side of Merwedeplein, the square where the Frank's apartment was located, and Eva and Anne were almost exactly the same age. Eva was also a close friend of Sanne Ledermann, and she knew both Anne and Margot.

Eva described herself as an out-and-out tomboy, and hence she was in awe of Anne's fashion sense and worldliness, but she was somewhat puzzled by Anne's fascination with boys. "I had a brother, so boys were no big thing to me" Eva wrote. But Anne had introduced Eva to her father when the Geiringers first came to Amsterdam "so you can speak German with someone" as Anne had said, and Eva n
