Personal life

Ann had two sons and a daughter by her marriage to Rowland Wheeler Dodson Jr (19271964). After Rowland's death, she married pioneering nuclear medicine physicist Michel Ter-Pogossian of St. Louis in 1966. The couple were residents of Clayton, Missouri.

Ann and Michel traveled extensively and were gourmets, scuba divers, and big-game hunters.

Ann loved entertaining at her home, filled with antiques and artworks, and served gourmet meals with fine wine. In her later years, Ann knitted thousands of colourful hats, which were donated to hospitals and shelters, and distributed to family members.
