Anen was the first son of Yuya and Tjuyu, and a likely older brother of Ay. Anen became the Chancellor of Lower Egypt, Second Prophet of Amun, sem-priest of Heliopolis, and Divine Father under the reign of the powerful New Kingdom Pharaoh, Amenhotep III. The Egyptian writer Ahmed Osman has suggested that he was the Biblical son of Joseph, Menashe by pointing out that Anen could be a pet form of Menashe, also showing many other parallels between the two, such as how he is mentioned in his tomb as being in charge of the graineries, which Menashe was in the Bible and countless Jewish legends. However, this theory is rarely accepted by mainstream Egyptologists. He was also the older brother of Queen Tiy.
