Paul Christian Frank (28 November 1879 – 21 February 1956) was a Norwegian barrister, politician, organizer and non-fiction writer.
[1][2] During the occupation of Norway by Nazi Germany, Frank was imprisoned in Møllergata 19 from June to July 1941, then in Grini concentration camp from 12 September 1941 to 26 November 1942.
He was arrested a third time in June 1944; after a month in Åkebergveien he was incarcerated in Grini from July to August 1944.
His organization was one of forty-three to protest nazification attempts on 15 May 1941, in a letter addressed directly to Reichskommissar Josef Terboven.
This protest of the 43 was met with harsh reactions; by 12 June 1941 an arrest order had been issued on Frank's fellow signatory from Norges Handelsstands Forbund, Erling Steen.
