Greek: Άννα Σικελιανού Anna Sikelianou (Athens, 1900 or 1904 - 26 May 2006) was the second wife of the poet Angelos Sikelianos. Anna Kampanari (Greek: Καμπανάρη), as was her maiden name, married Angelos Sikelianos on June 17, 1940. Her first marriage was with Dr Giorgos Karamanis, founder of the first sanatorium in Greece. In 1938 she met Sikelianos and after an exchange of love letters, they were married. After the death of the poet, Anna Sikelianou, in order to cope with financial problems, learned to work on the loom and wove to order. She wrote the books "My life with Angelos" (Estia Publications), "Letters to Anna" (including the letters exchanged with the poet) and "The poet Angelos Sikelianos" (2002).
