Anderson, the middle child of three brothers, was born in Houston, Texas. His father, Melver Leonard Anderson, was in advertising, and his mother, Texas Ann Burroughs, was an archaeologist and is now a real estate agent.
He attended St. John's School, a private school in Houston, later used as a filming location for his second film, Rushmore. Like Rushmore's protagonist Max Fischer, Anderson used to stage plays of his own direction on the stage of the now-demolished Hoodwink Theatre at St. John's.
Anderson studied philosophy at the University of Texas, where he met Owen Wilson. After making a short film version of Bottle Rocket, Anderson and Wilson attracted the notice of producer James L. Brooks. With his help they were able to get their short film into Sundance and secure funding for the feature-length version of Bottle Rocket.
Anderson lives in New York City and Los Angeles. He is friends with filmmaker Noah Baumbach, actor/screenwriter Owen Wilson, and Sofia Coppola. His brother, Eric, is a set designer on his films. His other brother, Mel, is a doctor.
