Abstract
Annie (‘Nan’) Anthony died on 1 May 2014 after a short illness. Born Annie Rodger in Dysart in 1933, she gained her MA in Modern Languages in 1955 from the University of Edinburgh, and worked on the Linguistic Survey of Scotland 1956–1958. In 1957 she married James (`Tony') Anthony, who had charge of the Edinburgh phonetics lab. While their children Jo and Chris were young, she worked as a part-time lecturer in the Edinburgh Phonetics Department, and the family spent the academic year 1963–64 in the USA, Tony researching in Peter Ladefoged's new laboratory at UCLA. From 1966 Nan was Research Phonetician in the Department of Child Life and Health at Edinburgh, a period of work which led to The Edinburgh Articulation Test (Anthony et al. 1971), a significant clinical assessment tool. In 1971 she moved to Moray House College of Education, where she remained for the rest of her career, becoming Head of the Department of Speech there in 1982.
