Anthony graduated from Wesleyan University with a BA in Film Studies and moved to New York City where he co-founded the production company Back House Productions. Their first musical In The Heights eventually went to Broadway, where it won the Tony Award for best new musical of 2008.
Most recently, he was a producer and director on the Pivot channel’s series Freestyle Love Supreme, which is an improvised, hip hop television show based on the group of the same name, that he co-founded with Lin-Manuel Miranda and Thomas Kail.
He also helped with the relaunch of children’s television show The Electric Company that is now airing on PBS, working as a creative producer, writer, lyricist, and actor. Anthony’s acting has included feature length films (notably Steven Soderbegh’s Che), television shows (HBO’s Looking and Sex and the City and All My Children), and numerous commercials.
In San Francisco, he founded the freestyle improv troupe called “The Freeze”, a west coast version of “Freestyle Love Supreme”. He also co-founded the hit improvised PowerPoint show “Speechless”, which is quickly becoming a major force in the corporate training world as well as the San Francisco performance scene.
