Annemie Wolff
German-Dutch photographer / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Annemie Wolff, also known as Annemie Wolff-Koller, born as Anna Maria Koller (27 Dec 1906, Laufen an der Salzach - 2 Feb 1994, Amsterdam), was a German-Dutch photographer. Her 1943 photos of Jewish and non-Jewish children and adults, taken in Amsterdam, were rediscovered in 2008 by Dutch photo historian Simon Kool. About 3000 photos were taken of 440 persons, and about 300 of the subjects have been identified in November 2016. About 50% of the photos' Jewish subjects perished in the Nazi concentration camps, while the others survived World War II.
