In 1938, 12-year-old Eva Schloss fled Austria to the Netherlands with her family. On May 10, 1940, Germany invaded the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, and France. Eva’s family went into hiding, but was discovered by the Nazis in 1944 and transported to Auschwitz. Eva and her mother were liberated by Soviet armed forces in 1945. Eva’s brother and father did not survive.

After the war, Eva’s mother married Otto Frank, famously known for being Anne Frank’s father. Eva was playmates with Anne Frank in Amsterdam before they were both forced into hiding.
