Navy Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry, who defeated the British Royal Navy in the Battle of Lake Erie in 1813.A decorated formal dress uniform attributed to U.S. Army General Omar Nelson Bradley, the last of only nine five-star general. During World War II, Bradley manded more than 1.3 million troops in Europe, the largest number of soldiers to have served under a U.S. field mander.

Also here are twin beds, one covered with a pair of haphazardly tossed magazines; Anne loved reading about all topics, including her day's pop culture. Magazine cutout photos of movie stars and royalty representing those she had displayed of Greta Garbo, Sonja Henie and Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret of England are posted on the bedroom walls. Some feet away, a trick bookcase protects the hideaway from the outside world. Turn it sideways and it opens into an entrance, just like the one in Frank's preserved hideout in Amsterdam. 

But this isn't Holland. This is "Anne Frank in the World: 1929-1945." Formally called an exhibit, it's sort of a small museum in the Atlanta suburb of Sandy Springs, Ga. Anne's bedroom is a reproduction of the original on Prinsengracht in the Dutch city. The bookcase here is built similarly to the one in Anne's Amsterdam annex. Between the trick door and Anne's reproduced room are rows and rows of more than 800 photographs, reproduced historic newspaper front pages and a scale model of the annex where the Jewish family hid from the Nazis during World War II.The story of Anne Frank is very familiar to those of a certain age.
