Anna Geyer

[1] In the USPD she worked in the head office for business councils and created a party press and information service.

[1] At the end of 1920, as the USPD itself broke up, she was part of the left wing majority that moved across to join the newly formed Communist Party, along with her husband[2] and her brother in law, Friedrich Geyer.

[1] In September 1922 what remained of the USPD re-merged with the SPD, taking Anna and Vurt Geyer with it.

[1] Within the party she continued to be active, especially in respect of women's political and employment issues, a subject on which she published a book in 1924.

In October 1933 the Geyers emigrated to Prague in Czechoslovakia where, like her husband, she worked on the (now exiled) Social Democratic publication, Neue Vorwärts.

Anna Geyer escaped through the south of France to Portugal, leaving Curt in Paris.

[3] In 1941 Anna Geyer became a member of the executive committee of the "German-American Council for the Liberation of Germany from Nazism", founded by her fellow SPD political exile, Albert Grzesinski.
