Anna Komnene (Greek: ???a ??µ????, Ánna Komnen?; 1 December 1083 – 1153), commonly latinized as Anna Comnena, was a Byzantine princess, scholar, physician, hospital administrator, and historian.
She was the daughter of the Byzantine Emperor Alexios I Komnenos and his wife Irene Doukaina.

She was well-educated in "Greek literature and history, philosophy, theology, mathematics, and medicine." Anna and Constantine were next in the line to throne until Anna's younger brother, John II Komnenos, became the heir in 1092.
Constantine died around 1094, and Anna married Nikephoros Bryennios in 1097.
The two had several children before Nikephoros' death around 1136.Following her father’s death in 1118, Anna and her mother attempted to usurp John II Komnenos.
