 [[Image:Capt_Ankner_%2B_6_Shetlands_at_Carmo_Manor.jpg|thumb|right|350px|Emmerich Ankner (1929)]]A respected horse trainer and high school rider of the first half of the twentieth century, Emmerich Ankner (1885-1954) was born in Vienna in 1885. He was the son of an official on the staff of the Empress Elizabeth of Austria. As a young man, he had served as a cavalry officer for the Austrian Army, and was later trained in the classic art of riding and dressage in the Imperial Riding School in Vienna. One of his fellow pupils there was Karl of Austria, who was to become the last Emperor of Austria and King of Hungary after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo in 1914. Ankner left the army with the rank of Captain, and he would be often billed in his subsequent circus career as "Captain Ankner."
-From Vienna, Ankner went to Berlin and was taught high-school riding by the famous equestrian and high-school rider, [[Georg Burckhardt-Footit]], at [[Circus Busch]], where he made his debut in the ring in 1905. He was attached for a time to Circus Busch, and then toured with various circuses in Germany, Austria, and Holland, and was often featured in Parisian and other European resident circuses. He also worked with the legendary [[Circus Sarrasani]], with which he toured South America in 1923/1924. In 1928, Ankner brought a stud of horses from [[Circus Carl Hagenbeck]], in Germany, for [[Bertram Mills]], who sold them to [[The Great Carmo|Harry Carmo]] for his newly formed Great Carmo’s Circus in Ireland&mdash;and thus Ankner became the Equestrian Director of the Carmo show.
