	Injuries no longer hinder lady spikers' Anderson
		Anderson's collegiate career has been filled with injuries that have forced the 6-foot junior to watch as her Lady Lion teammates experienced the success that has been the trademark of Penn State women's volleyball.
		Now a sturdy fixture at opposite hitter, a position played opposite the setter where a player assumes an abundance of blocking responsibility and some of the setting duties, Anderson is finally enjoying the same Lady Lion success she had been forced to watch during the last two years.
		For Anderson, this season's effective level of play stems from her continuous work and preparation during that redshirt season, forcing parts of her game, and her body, to develop in order to remain intact throughout a vigorous Big Ten season.

		"The Lindsay Anderson he unveils, through his own recollections, their correspondence and Anderson's diaries, is a character of almost unbearable frustration and repression, locked in a pre-adolescent sulk against authority in general and his domineering mother in particular.

	NEWS \| MAGAZINE \| VOLUME 25-4 NOVEMBER 2000
		"In a sense," Gavin Lambert writes in Mainly About Lindsay Anderson, "biography is history reflected in one person's life." He mentions this in relation to research for his biography of Norma Shearer and in that context, as it would be for his more recent and highly praised Nazimova, it is true.
		But Mainly About Lindsay Anderson, a biography indeed - sensitive, intelligent, compelling - is the history of two person's lives: Lambert's as well as Anderson's, and is all the richer for the intertwining.
		Lindsay Anderson made documentaries (his Thursday's Children, 1953, won an Academy Award), wrote books (About John Ford), was an actor (Chariots of Fire, 1981), an exacting director for the stage (Look Back in Anger) and screen (six features in 30 years).

	Sample text for Library of Congress control number 99059305
		Lindsay, like Ford, was at once a rebel and a traditionalist, and in Ford he perceived "a divided man" who could be "gentle and irascible" in equal measure.
		Lindsay appears in frequently intercut reaction shots, stunned by Ford's perversity, touched by his moments of warmth, mocked as "some kind of intellectual," and receiving out of the blue a photograph inscribed "with sincere thanks and gratitude for your friendship."
		Lindsay's files proved a rich source for re-creating some of his life and much of his work when I started to write this biographical-autobiographical-monographical memoir; but my own files are comparatively meager, with gaps that only memory can fill.
