Trương Tử Anh (1914 – 1946) or known as "Anh Cả Phương" ("Eldest Brother Phương") was a Vietnamese revolutionary and nationalist leader who served as founder and the first president of the Dai Viet Nationalist Party from 1939 to 1946, opposing the Indochinese Communist Party of Ho Chi Minh. He was executed by the Viet Minh in 1946 after a failed coup attempt to overthrow the Viet Minh regime.

Anh founded the party in 1939.[1] Among the original members were several prominent figures in Vietnam's politics, such as Dr. Phan Huy Quát and Dr. Nguyễn Tôn Hoàn.[2]
