In this lecture, Rolf Wolfswinkel will make the point that icons have to carry so much of the weight of all our dreams and desires that we lose sight of the person underneath all that baggage. Perhaps, the Anne Frank we all think we know is a girl that never existed. Wolfswinkel is professor of modern history in the Liberal Studies Program of New York University's Faculty of Arts & Science.
