Born in Vienna in 1895, Freud’s tryst with psychology began at the early age of 13, when she would take part in her father’s weekly discussions on psychoanalytic ideas. She went on to become one of the founders of the field of child psychoanalysis, having been drawn to it when she taught at an elementary school in the early 1900s. The Freud family fled Austria during the Nazi occupation in 1938 out of fear of persecution, and emigrated to London where Anna established the Hampstead War Nurseries for children rendered homeless during World War II. She applied her training and knowledge to the children at the institution, which was renamed the Hampstead Child Therapy Course and Clinic after being granted charity status in 1952. Following her death in 1982, it was [renamed](http://www.annafreud.org/pages/about-us.html) the Anna Freud Centre and continues to be one of the major global institutions for the mental health of young children. ### See Google Doodles Through the Years  Aug. 26, 2015 For the 70th anniversary of La Tomatina.
