Otto Frank Timeline and Summary

Anne’s father prepares a hiding place for his family and others.
Mr. Frank serves as peacemaker in the Secret Annex. Occasionally, he stands up for Anne when criticism of her becomes especially harsh.
With the other men, Mr. Frank occasionally leaves the hiding place and goes downstairs to investigate possible burglars.
Pim is hurt when Anne writes him a letter, expressing her independence from her parents and her wish that they would grant her liberty to develop her relationship with Peter as she wishes.
Pim is the one person who survives the labor camps. He returns to Holland and publishes Anne’s diary two years after the war ends.
