Anne Whitney (September 2, 1821 in Watertown, Massachusetts – January 23, 1915 in Boston, Massachusetts) was an American sculptor and poet. ==Early years== As with many other early, successful 19th century women sculptors Whitney came from a supportive and liberal – in her case Unitarian – family background. She was homeschooled as a youngster, and later traveled to Europe where she studied in Rome, Munich, and Paris before she returned to the US. In 1846 she opened a small school in Salem, Massachusetts. In the 1860s she exhibited work in the Boston gallery of De Vries, Ibarra & Co.〔''Ladies' Repository: a Universalist Monthly Magazine'' (Boston: Universalist Publishing House, no.37 Cornhill), April 1867〕 A well-known supporter of both the abolitionist and suffragette movements, Whitney herself was to publicly feel the brunt of the sexism of the day when, in 1875, the commission for a statue of Charles Sumner that won a competition was denied her when it was discovered that the winning model was created by a woman.
