Please make sure you start a new discussion under a section heading, and don't forget to sign your posts. As for your question, I could not find anything with Google about the death of anyone named Melody Anderson. Do you have an RS? Nightscream (talk) 15:04, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

ANDERSON--Dr. Melody M., passed away on Sunday, January 10th. Melody was an accomplished psychotherapist who helped countless people during the course of her 20+ years in private practice. Melody held an MSW from Columbia University, a Ph.D. in Social Welfare from Yeshiva University and a Master of Arts in Psychology from the New School of Social Research. She was a National Woodrow Wilson Fellow and received numerous awards and honors for her work. Melody taught at Yeshiva University and lectured extensively. She was involved in formulating governmental social policy and was an advocate for the needs of women and the elderly. She co-founded the first licensed mental health facility in the U.S. focused on the psychological needs of midlife and older women. Melody loved traveling, antiques, music and the theater, among many other interests. Melody is survived by her husband Franz and leaves behind many beloved friends and family who will miss her dearly. Funeral Services will be at 11:30am on Wednesday, January 13th at Frank E.

No, but there appears to have been some confusion about the two. Melody M Anderson was the psychotherapist who died in 2010, while Melody J Anderson is teh topic of teh article. As both work in similar fields, in NYC, with almost identical names, there has been some confusion. - Bilby (talk) 04:32, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

Model?

Recently came to my attention (purely at random) that Ms. Anderson was a Victoria's Secret lingerie model both before _and_ after her Flash Gordon role (~1979-1982). Worth citing? Sskoog (talk) 01:23, 19 December 2014 (UTC)

One of the first non-Australian female reporters working for a Sydney newspaper ?

Melody Anderson worked for a Sydney newspaper? Which one? And one of the first non-Australians? Really? This claim seems to hang from just one source, an online source that has now disappeared. Apart from this, there is no evidence I could find anywhere - not in the digitized collections of Trove, or newspapers.com. But I'm happy to be proved wrong.

I have removed the claim, as after a week of fruitless searching its clear there is no basis for it. WP documents a number of female reporters working in Australia in the C20th - in fact there is a category for it. It includes such well known names as New Zealand born journalists Nancy Bates (journalist) and Kate Webb, English born journalists Anna Blackwell and Edith Dickenson and Texas born journalist Jennie Scott Griffiths.
