In the BBC mini-series adaptation of Charles Dickens’ classic Bleak House, Anderson starred as Lady Dedlock and the critically-acclaimed performance earned her a nomination for Best Actress at the British Academy of Film and Television Awards in 2006 and at the Emmy’s. She also provided the voice of Queen Vorkana in the animated comedy short Robbie the Reindeer in Close Encounters of the Herd Kind for UK television and the voice of Helene Hanff in the BBC’s radio adaptation of 84 Charing Cross Rd. Anderson obtained her BFA degree from the prestigious Goodman Theater School at Chicago’s DePaul University. She performed in the Manhattan Theatre Club production of Alan Ayckborne’s Absent Friends, for which she won a Theatre World Award in 1991. In addition, she appeared in Christopher Hampton’s The Philanthropist, at the Long Wharf Theater in New Haven, CT. Anderson made her London stage debut in Michael Weller’s What The Night Is For in 2002 and then went on to continued success and critical acclaim in the Royal Court’s production of Rebecca Gillman’s play The Sweetest Swing In Baseball in 2005. Anderson is currently starring in A Doll’s House at London’s prestigious West End theatre, The Donmar Warehouse. Zinnie Harris provided the adaptation of Ibsen’s classic, which is directed by Kfir Yfet. The show runs until July 18 2009. Later this year Anderson will again partner with Kfir Yfet for his film directorial debut of his own adaptation of the award-winning South African novel The Smell Of Apples. Anderson’s production company has acquired the rights to Caroline Moorehead’s 2004 biography Gellhorn: A Twentieth-Century Life, which she plans to produce and star in as Martha Gellhorn, about legendary war correspondent and onetime wife of Ernest Hemingway. Screenwriter Sharman Macdonald has adapted the book for the screen. Over the last 15 years, Anderson has been strongly involved in many charity organizations, as a Board Member of Artist For A New South Africa, a spokesperson for Neurofibromatosis Inc., a founding member of Off The Street Kids and a patron of the Alinyiikira Junior School in Uganda, amongst many, many others.
