     Born- December 3, 1895, Vienna, Austria

     Died: October 9, 1982, London, United Kingdom


     Citizenship: Austrian
     Known for: Work on the nature of ego
    Founder of child psychoanalysis
    Defence mechanisms
     Anna Freud did more than live in her father's rather
    long shadow.
     She becomes one of the world's foremost
    psychoanalysts and is recognized as the founder of
    child psychoanalysis, despite the fact that her father
    often suggested that children could not be
    psychoanalyzed.
     She declared that she learned far more at home from
    her father and his guests and indeed acquired
    knowledge of psychoanalysis from the group to which
    few others had access, and this grounded her life-long
    contributions to the field.
     Her first book, which is a series of lectures for teachers
    and parents.
     In 1923 she began her own psychoanalytical practice
    with children and two years later was conducting a
    seminar at the Vienna Psychoanalytic Training
    Institute on the technique of child analysis.
     Her work here resulted in this book.
     In 1923 Sigmund Freud began suffering from cancer
    and became increasingly dependent on Anna's care
    and nursing
     Later on, when he needed treatment in Berlin, she was
    the one who accompanied him there.
     In early September 1939 war broke out and within a
    few weeks Sigmund Freud died.
    Sigmund Freud’s illness was also the reason why a
    "Secret Committee" was formed to protect
    psychoanalysis against attacks.
    From 1927 to 1934 Anna Freud was General Secretary
    of the International Psychoanalytical Association. She
    continued her child analysis practice and ran seminars
    on the subject, organized conferences and, at home,
    continued to help nursing her father.
     The details of Anna Freud's personal life are
    consistently cryptic.
     But it is certain that her father was the only man in her
    life long-term.
     The letters ''convey the picture of an affectionate,
    intensely human Anna Freud without a trace of
    rigidity or psychoanalytic orthodoxy. Here is a shy
    young woman of deep feeling. '‘
     Indeed she said of herself, ''I was always looking
    outside myself for strength and confidence but it
    comes from within. It is there all the time.''
     In 1965, she received the Dolly Madison Award.
     In 1967, she was named a Commander of the British
    Empire by Queen Elizabeth II.
     In 1975, she was awarded an MD degree from the
    University of Vienna. The same year, she also received
    the Grand Decoration of Honour in Gold
     She created the field of child psychoanalysis and her
    work contributed greatly to the understanding of child
    psychology. She noted that children’s symptoms
    differed from those of adults and were often related to
    developmental stages.
     One of her most significant published works is ‘The
    Ego and the Mechanisms of Defence’ in which she
    outlined and expanded upon her father's theory of
    psychological defence mechanisms.
     “Creative minds have always been known to survive
    any kind of bad training.”
     “I was always looking outside myself for strength and
    confidence but it comes from within. It is there all the
    time.”
     “Create around one at least a small circle where
    matters are arranged as one wants them to be.”
