John Anderson (born 1965) is a sports journalist from Green Bay, Wisconsin, and a host of the ESPN TV program SportsCenter since June 1999. He lives in Southington, Connecticut.

Anderson has a journalism degree from the Missouri School of Journalism at the University of Missouri-Columbia. He is active within the MU Alumni Association and can often be seen at Missouri Tigers sporting events. Anderson was the Grand Marshall at Missouri's 2002 Homecoming football game, in which Missouri beat the University of Kansas.

One of the reasons Anderson decided to come to Missouri is so he could compete as a high jumper on the track and field team. As a student, Anderson worked at KOMU-TV, but any work on the sports desk was voluntary. After graduating, Anderson spent time in Tulsa, Oklahoma, working for KTUL-TV and KOTV-TV, and he also worked in Phoenix before joining ESPN.

[edit] Trivia

Anderson maintains loyalty to the Missouri Tigers and the professional and college sports teams in Wisconsin. This can be evident when he announces their highlights.
He co-wrote a book about golf with golfer Juan "Chi-Chi" Rodríguez (ISBN 0-7360-4631-3).
On the 29th of August, while doing a segment pertaining to running backs in the National Football League, Anderson mistakenly said the word circumcision in place of circumstance. He was visibly flustered but nonetheless continued the segment to completion.
