BIO
Originally from Chicagoland, Meg Anderson earned a B.S. in Film & Television from Boston University before heading to New York City, where she worked as a producer, writer, and performer and discovered that being a grown-up is, like actually hard.
A comedy veteran with over 10,000 hours of comedy performance under her belt, Meg has appeared in numerous commercials, web series, podcasts, and indie films. She wrote and starred in a digital series as Ruth Bader Ginsberg, performed a sold-out solo show about her Queens landlord at the SoloCom Festival, and created sketch comedy at UCB, The PIT, the Magnet, and more. At The PIT, she taught improv classes for 8 years and co-founded its longest-running house team, The Baldwins, performing 500+ shows. She also produced and hosted an award-winning stand-up show at BAM, and during the pandemic, co-created a digital show with her husband that aired on WNYC.
Behind the scenes, Meg has produced for Sundance, Tribeca, and other major film festivals, supported avant-garde legend Robert Wilson on the re-staging of The Black Rider (music by Tom Waits, words by William S. Burroughs) at the Mark Taper Forum and helped open The Watermill Center in the Hamptons.
In 2023, Meg moved to Los Angeles with her husband and their cat, Willie Nelson. She's still writing, producing, and performing and is genuinely delighted that LA sells bathing suits year-round.
