Melody Anderson celebrates 25 years since the making of Flash Gordon. She adds this to her many film and television credits including: "Fire Walker", with Chuck Norris and Lou Gossett; "Policewoman Centerfold," with Ed Marinaro; "Ernie Kovacs: Between the Laughter," with Jeff Goldblum; "Manimal," with Simon McCorkindale; 'Natalie' in "All My Children"; "Dead And Buried" with James Farentrino; "Speed Zone" with John Candy; and "Boy In Blue" with Nicholas Cage. The Canadian-born actress took time off from show business for the people business and received her Masters in Social Work. She created the "Friends & Family Program" and the "Intensive Out-Patient Program" at Hazelden New York. Melody still appears on the screen, but now as an expert on families and addiction. She appeared in a ShowTime documentary directed by oscar winner Robert Zemeckis. She currently has a private practice in New York City, lectures around the country and internationally on addictions and is working on a book for parents with kids who use drugs and alcohol. However, she admits that acting is still in her blood and if the right part comes along, she'll consider it!
