A daughter, Anna, was born to Martha and Sigmund Freud, the couple’s sixth and youngest child. Anna was a well-known psychologist in her own right as well as the daughter of the founder of psycho-analysis, and was a pioneer in the field of child psychology. She disagreed profoundly with her father regarding the functions of the part of the personality he named the “ego,” making a major contribution to modern understanding of psychology. In 1938, after Austria was annexed by the Nazis, Anna and her ,  husband fled Vienna with her father and the rest of her family, settling in England, where she remained until her death in 1982.
