Early life and education
Born on 26 October 1921 in Klucze, Poland, Anna Louise Christine Mogensen was the daughter of the Danish engineer Knud Mogensen (1881–1943) and his wife Louise (née Friis). The youngest of three children, she was raised in Poland where her father was an employee of the Danish cement firm FLSmidth. As a result of disturbing developments in Poland, the family returned to Denmark, where she attended Snoghøj Gymnastikhøjskole before being trained as a photographer by Rigmor Mydtskov. ==Participation in the resistance movement==

As a keen member of the Conservative's youth movement, together with her two brothers she became involved in the resistance, contributing to the clandestine journals Studenternes Efterretningstjeneste (from 1942) and Hjemmefronten (1943). She took photographs for the renowned resistance fighter Jørgen Haagen Schmith of the Holger Danske group, better known by his codename Citronen. ==Commemoration==
