Hint
In „das ist Anna Maywald, eine Freundin“, we see that das can also mean that. The article eine is the female form of ein.
And just as you can say „I want out“ instead of „I want to walk out“ in English, you can sometimes drop the main verb in German and say „ich muss zur Arbeit“ instead of „ich muss zur Arbeit gehen“.
