Biography
American performance artist and composer from Glen Ellyn, Illinois, known for deadpan storytelling over violin and electronics. 'O Superman' (1981) made her an unlikely pop star, and 'Big Science' (1982) and the stage epic 'United States' (1983) established her multimedia method on #Warner Bros. Records#. Her later projects include 'Landfall' (2012) with *Kronos Quartet* and the film 'Heart of a Dog' (2015). Anderson's work treats language, memory and technology as musical material, and she remains a defining figure of downtown New York art.
