Started working in glass in the 1960’s.

Larry Anderson studied with Joe Hawley at San Jose City College and went on to study glass and ceramics at SJSU under Herbert Sanders and Dr. Fritz. He was hired to teach at Fresno State University in 1971 by the head of the Art Department, who had seen the SJSU glass program and wanted a program started at Fresno. The Fresno glass studio was completed by 1973 and Anderson ran the program until he retired as Chair of the Art and Design Program in 2004.
