Robert Anderson (1913 – June 3, 1997) was a Canadian filmmaker who specialized in films about psychiatry, first with the National Film Board of Canada, and then through his own company. He was the first filmmaker to create truthful, objective films about mental health and addiction, and to make films of this type using actual patients, doctors and hospitals, rather than actors in reconstructions. His most famous film is Drug Addict, which caused a furor when it was banned in the United States. Anderson was co-founder of the Canadian National Science Film Library, and he played a large role in bringing television to the Canadian House of Commons.
