Anne of Saint Bartholomew was a Spanish Discalced Carmelite nun who lived from 1550 to 1626. A close companion to the foundress Teresa of Ávila, she provided essential care to the saint during her final years. Anne played a significant role in expanding her religious order by establishing several new monasteries across France and the Low Countries. Throughout her service, she held various leadership positions as a prioress, often navigating difficult relationships with her superiors while working to spread the Carmelite mission throughout Europe.
