Anderson then went to Union College in Barbourville (now Union Commonwealth University, where he played basketball along with his academic pursuits.
“I came back home to Harlan and coached high school ball for a few years,” Anderson said. “Then I worked in the coal industry for a while. I’m a single dad, I’ve got two daughters, age 15 and 13. Pam Anderson was my mother.”
Anderson, 42, has spent most of his life in Harlan.
“I moved off a few years ago and went to Georgetown and worked for Toyota for a couple of years,” Anderson said. “Other than that, and being in school, I’ve lived in Harlan. I was born and raised here; I love it here.”
