Anderson attended the California Institute of the Arts, where he also served as a story instructor for four years.
Anderson joined Walt Disney Animation Studios in 1999 as a story artist on Tarzan. Prior to joining Disney, Anderson worked as an animator at Hyperion Animation on Rover Dangerfield and Bébé's Kids.
Following Tarzan, Anderson served as story supervisor for The Emperor's New Groove and Brother Bear. Anderson made his directorial debut with the 2007 film Meet the Robinsons and later directed the 2011 film Winnie the Pooh with Don Hall. After the release of Meet the Robinsons he pitched an idea for a feature called "The Earth and the Sky", which would have been The Fox and the Hound with a boy and a dragon. But when DreamWorks announced their movie How to Train Your Dragon, which had similar story elements, the idea was dropped.
Anderson currently resides in Canyon Country, California, with his wife, Heather, and their son, Jacob.
