Draw character sketch of mr albert dussel, and ellie vosen.

Alfred Dussel was chosen from a circle of acquaintances as a single person who could blend in well with the extended family in hiding. He was a dentist who lived with a Christian lady quite a bit younger than he was but they were probably not married. He was know to be quiet,refined and seemed from their acquaintance to be nice. He was assigned to share Anne's room. Dussel was inquisitive by nature,asking all sorts of questions upon his arrival because he had been astonished by the ingenuity of their plan of going into hiding in plain view at the office. He was slow to catch on, asking everything twice and not remembering what had been told before. But very soon he revealed his true nature,he was a petty man who was a tattletale,always complaining of something,found Anne irksome,he would hoard food and be generally selfish and sullen.In order to kill the long hours of confinement,Dussel opened his dental practice in the annex,treating Mrs van Daan with a nonchalance required of  his profession. He was quite lax with observing the rules of the house,he was a man used to setting down rules in his own house and he missed his partner Charlotte all the time.

Elli Vossen was the other name of Bep Voskuijl. She was one of the two secretaries working in the building who found Anne's diaries strewn allover the floor. She was a twenty-three year old typist whose father worked in the warehouse and had also been aware of the families hiding in the secret annex. She used to work in the big front office along with Miep Gies and Mr Kleiman. Bep would do the grocery shopping with their ration coupons, she also helped the girls can fruits,supply reading material and entertained them when she could. She usedto buy new skirts for Margot and Anne,order correspondence courses in her name for the youngsters. When her boyfriend was being sent to Germany,Bep was very subdued because she feared for his life. Whenever she stayed over,the girls had a lot of fun because she was young and tried not to let the dangers of the situation get to her or them. Bep would make the girls feel important by letting them do a lot of office work and taking them seriously. She was a kind,considerate and helpful girl who had selflessly and tirelessly for the members of the secret annex.
