Who is Anne Pride?
Anne Pride was a National Organization for Women activist and publisher.
Anne married Edwin Kurlfink at the age of 16, but even before her separation and divorce, wanted to change her name back to Huggett, her family name. Edwin accepted this but her father, John M. Huggett, didn't want his name to be associated with the women's movement. She was appointed president of the feminist publishing company KNOW, Inc. in 1969. She was on the board of directors of the Committee of Small Magazines Editors and Publishers for 1974-1976. She served as editor of Do It NOW, NOW's national newsletter from 1970-76.
Upon her separation from Edwin in 1977, she changed her name to Pride, a name no-one could reclaim. It was in that year that she read a memorial at an anti-violence campaign in Pittsburgh that contained the phrase Take Back the Night.
