Author Frank Baker Honored at Anne Frank Awards 2026 Ceremony<\/strong>
\nRecipient of the Leadership in Arts and Letters Award<\/p>\n

I wrote “We Survived The Holocaust: The Bluma and Felix Goldberg Story”<\/a><\/strong>: I never expected the kind of recognition I just received. On Monday evening. February 9, The Anne Frank Cente<\/strong>r<\/a> (at the University of South Carolina campus and only one of three in the world) held its bi-annual awards ceremony<\/strong><\/a>. I sat in awe as teachers and students, not just from South Carolina, were recognized and feted.\u00a0 Ronald Leopold, the head of the Anne Frank House<\/a><\/strong> in Amsterdam was present to receive the award for Outstanding Stewardship of Anne\u2019s Legacy. Late last year. I was informed that I would be the first recipient of the Anne Frank Award for Leadership in Arts and Letters. I’m still overwhelmed. A huge thanks to family and friends who came out to support and celebrate the Center’s continued education mission.<\/p>\n
