On 10 December, Princeton Jewish Center will host the Co-founder and Honorary Vice President of the Anne Frank Trust UK, Gillian Walnes Perry, who is currently visiting New Jersey from London. The Center will show an excerpt from the acclaimed feature length documentary, ‘Anne Frank Remembered’, which Gillian initiated and commissioned the multi-talented writer and director Jon Blair to make.

The film was first shown in 1995 as a flagship broadcast for the BBC’s 50th anniversary of VE Day. It went on to win both an Emmy and Oscar, and Gillian will describe attending the Oscar ceremony along with Miep Gies, the heroic helper of the Frank family during their two years of hiding in Amsterdam.
