Jacqueline van Maarsen
Jacqueline Yvonne Meta (Jacque) van Maarsen ((:ʒɑkəˈlin iˈvɔnə ˈmeːtaː (ʒɑk) vɑm ˈmaːrsə(n))) (born January 30, 1929) is a Dutch author and former bookbinder. She is best known for her friendship with diarist Anne Frank. Jacque's Christian mother was able to remove the ''J'' (Jew) signs from the family's identity cards (Jacque's father was Jewish) during the Second World War, an act which helped the Van Maarsens to escape from the Nazis.
==Early life==
Jacque was born in Amsterdam to a Dutch-Jewish father, Hijman van Maarsen, and a French Christian mother, Elline van Maarsen.〔My Name Is Anne, She Said, Anne Frank- a memoir book by Jacqueline van Maarsen〕 Jacque has a sister, Christiane. Jacque studied in a normal school in Amsterdam until 1940, when the Nazis invaded the Netherlands. Then Jacque had to move to a Jewish lyceum. In the Jewish school, Jacqueline befriended many girls, including Anne Frank, Nanette Blitz, Sanne Ledermann and Hanneli Goslar. Jacque was the secretary of the ping-pong club started by her friends, Little Bear Minus Two.
Anne and Jacque became best friends, and they often visited each other's houses and did their homework together. Jacque sincerely liked Anne, but found her at times too demanding in her friendship. In July 1942, Anne's family went into hiding, but Jacque did not know about this.〔''The Diary of a Young Girl'': The Definitive Edition, edited by Mirjam Pressler, and translated by Susan Massotty〕 Anne, in her diary later, was remorseful for her own attitude toward Jacque, regarding with better understanding Jacque's desire to have other close girlfriends as well - "I just want to apologize and explain things", Anne wrote. After two and a half months in hiding, Anne composed a farewell letter to Jacque in her diary, vowing her lifelong friendship. Jacque read this passage much later, after the publication of the diary.
Meanwhile, the Nazis were arresting Jews throughout the country. Jacque, who was half-Jewish by Nazi standards, felt the threat of arrest. Because she was Christian, Jacque's mother was able to remove the "J" (Jew) signs from the family's ID cards. This act helped the Van Maarsens to escape from the Nazis, and it allowed Jacque to transfer out of the Jewish school and back into general education.
