!!!Freud, Anna

b. Vienna, Dec. 3, 1895, 
d. London (United Kingdom), Oct. 9, 1982, psychoanalyst, youngest 
daughter of Sigmund  Freud. In 1922 became a member of the 
International Psychoanalytic Society. Studied child psychology and 
focused on questions relating to upbringing and pedagogics, which led 
to the establishment of the Child Seminar or Child Therapy Course 
(Kinderseminar). Her book "Das Ich und die Abwehrmechanismen" (1936) 
(The Ego and Mechanisms of Defense, 1937) was a valuable contribution 
to ego psychology. She was very close to her father and repeatedly 
represented him in public. In 1938 had to emigrate to England with her 
father, who was suffering from cancer, and cared for him until his 
death. Became head of the Hampstead Child Therapy Clinic in 1952. Did 
not return to Vienna as a visitor until 1971.
