Born January 21, 1912 to Ida and Emil Anson, Abraham Anson attended New York City University before joining the army.

Along with his significant contributions to the world of photogrammetry, the process of measuring distances between objects through the utilization of photography, Anson was extremely adept at surveying and mapping, and was a very talented painter. Abraham Anson passed away May 29, 2005.
