Corrie ten Boom and the Hiding Place
Corrie ten Boom (1892-1983) was born in Haarlem, The Netherlands. After being arrested in 1944 for helping Jews escape, Corrie spent a year during World War II in prison camps. After the war, she was invited to share her experiences in more than sixty countries and was honored by the state of Israel for her work during the war. Her life story, The Hiding Place, was originally released in 1971. In 1977, she settled in California, where she died in 1983, on her 91st birthday.

Corrie ten Boom and the Hiding Place
From spring 1943, the Ten Boom Family starts to shelter Jews themselves. Several of them spent extended time with the Ten Booms; others just two days. Despite all the horrors going on in the outside world, the atmosphere in the house is happy. A lot of music is made; even a play is rehearsed and performed.
