Biography

Anderson was born June Millichamp Kruse in Erlanger, Kentucky,[1][2] a suburb of Cincinnati, Ohio.

In the 1980s she co-authored several books in collaboration with her husband, Poul Anderson.[1]

She was the first person to use the term filk music in print;[3] she also wrote the first published science fiction haiku (or scifaiku), "Six Haiku" (The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction, July 1962).[4] In 1950 she, along with three friends, founded a Sherlock Holmes society, naming it the "Red Circle Society." She was, around this time, a friend of Hugh Everett III, of whose theories about parallel universes Poul Anderson later became an enthusiast.[5]

Robert A. Heinlein dedicated his 1982 novel, Friday, in part to Anderson.[6]

The writer Greg Bear was her son-in-law.
