Dr. Annie Reich died on January 5, 1971. She was born and educated in Vienna, and became a member of the Vienna Psychoanalytic Society in 1929. Several years later she moved to Berlin with her husband, Dr. Wilhelm Reich, and lived there until 1933 when, because of the political climate, she moved to Prague. She was one of the founders of the Czech Study Group of Psychoanalysts. In 1938 she settled in New York and soon began teaching and training at the New York Psychoanalytic Institute. For a time she was also on the staff of the Mount Sinai Hospital.
Dr. Reich took an active interest in psychoanalytic education and was twice elected President of the New York Psychoanalytic Institute. She published many papers on a variety of clinical subjects, some didactic and some presenting well-known clinical problems in a new light. With her second husband, Thomas Rubinstein, a historian, she shared wide-ranging intellectual interests.
Annie Reich belonged to the second generation of psychoanalysts. She taught a succession of students, contributed to psychoanalytic science, and was an exemplary clinician. During a long illness she continued her teaching and clinical practice with her usual perceptive understanding of the needs of her students and patients. She is survived by two daughters, Dr. Eve Reich Moise and Dr. Lore Reich Rubin, a psychoanalyst.
