Biography

Anna Stiegler (born Anna Behrend: 21 April 1881 – 23 June 1963) was a German politician (SPD). She is remembered, in particular, for her contributions on women's issues and social policy more generally. During the Nazi years she was involved in what came to be termed "antifascist resistance", spending much of the period in prison. She was married twice, and may be identified in sources, using her first married name, as Anna Vogt.
