Unearthed: A Lost Actress, a Forbidden Book, and a Search for Life in the Shadow of the Holocaust with Meryl Frank
Unearthed is the story of Meryl Frank’s search for her cousin Franya and a timely history of hatred and resistance. A thrilling mystery woven into a beautifully constructed family memoir, Frank’s journey seeks the truth about a beloved and revolutionary cousin, a celebrated actress in Vilna before World War II, and to answer the question of how the next generation should honor the memory of the Holocaust.
Meryl Frank is president of Makeda Global Network, an international consulting firm that works with women worldwide. She has been an activist, a mayor, an ambassador, and a champion for women’s leadership around the world. In 2009, President Obama appointed her Ambassador to the UN Commission on the Status of Women. In 2022, President Biden appointed her to a seat on the US Holocaust Memorial Council.
