Is Anna Freud really a Lesbian?greenspun.com : LUSENET : History & Theory of Psychology : One Thread |
Hi! Can anyone tell me whether Anna Freud is lesbian or not? Or where can I find more information about Anna Freud?

There has been some speculation, but I don't think anyone knows, with certainty. Not overtly, in any case. You might have a look at Janet Sayers' 1991 book, Mothering psychoanalysis : Helene Deutsch, Karen Horney, Anna Freud and Melanie Klein. Or at the 1988 Anna Freud: A biography by Elisabeth Young-Bruehl.
