There is more under her married name, Anne Calloway (October 2, 1921, December 27, 2008). Here is a photograph. Anne Whitney married her graduate school class mate Jean Calloway, who himself became a professor of mathematics (author of this text book). In an interview from 1996, summarized here, she laments the fact that her marriage ended her career as a mathematician. I guess many of my generation have similar stories of their parents.
