Anderson's first television production was the 1957 Roberta Leigh children's series ''The Adventures of Twizzle'' (1957–58). ''Torchy the Battery Boy'' (1960), and ''Four Feather Falls'' (1960) followed. ''Supercar'' (1961–62) and ''Fireball XL5'' (1962–63) came next, both series breaking into the U.S. television market in the early 1960s. In the mid-1960s Anderson produced his most successful series, ''Thunderbirds''. Other television productions of the period included ''Stingray'', ''Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons'' and ''Joe 90''.
Anderson also wrote and produced several feature films, including ''Doppelgänger'' (aka ''Journey to the Far Side of the Sun'', 1969). Following a shift towards live-action productions in the 1970s, he had a long and successful association with media impresario Lew Grade and Grade's company ITC, continuing until the second series of ''Space: 1999''.
After a lull in which a number of new series failed to materialise, Anderson began a new phase in his career the early 1980s, when nostalgia for his earlier Supermarionation series, prompted by Saturday morning re-runs in Britain and Australia, led to new commissions. Later projects included a 2005 CG remake of ''Captain Scarlet'' titled ''New Captain Scarlet''. Anderson died in 2012. Provided by Wikipedia
