boarder with the Van Daans at Guider Amsterdam 34 (before the Van Daans moved into the Annex), and frequently had dinner with the Van Daans and Franks. Max survived the war. After the war, Otto Frank gave Max a first edition of Anne's book, published in 1947 as "Het Achterhuis." Eugene Hollander, first-cousin of Frank's mother. Holocaust survivor, wrote the memoir From the Hell of the Holocaust: A Survivor's Story. Arresting officer Karl Silberbauer was the Sicherheitsdienst (Nazi Security Service) officer who arrested Anne Frank and her family in their hiding place in 1944. He was tracked down and identified as the arresting officer in October 1963 by the Nazi hunter Simon Wiesenthal. Although his memories of the arrest were notably vivid, Silberbauer had not been told by his superior officer, Julius Dettmann, who had made the tip-off, only that it came from a "reliable source", and was unable to provide any information that would further a police investigation. Silberbauer's confession helped discredit claims that The Diary of Anne Frank was a forgery. Given Otto Frank's crucial declaration that Silberbauer had obviously acted on orders and behaved correctly and without cruelty during the arrest, judicial investigation of Silberbauer was dropped, and he was able to continue in his career as a police officer. Silberbauer died in 1972. Fellow prisoners Janny Brandes-Brilleslijper (24 October 1916 – 15 August 2003) and her sister Lientje, Anne and Margot's fellow prisoners in all three camps, had both trained as nurse aides and were among the last people to see Anne and Margot Frank alive. While she was there she was sexually assaulted by one of the guards that worked in her camp. Holocaust perpetrators Adolf Hitler (20 April 1889 – 30 April 1945) was the leader of Nazi Germany, the individual overall responsible for the Holocaust and the central perpetrator. Although he didn't know Anne Frank personally, Hitler was responsible for her and her family's death due to him orchestrating the genocide.
