Tal Anderson is a storyteller and an advocate for change, using her voice and platform as an actor to support inclusion and authentic representation in Hollywood.

She is best known for her work in the Netflix series Atypical as 'Sid', a role specifically developed for her, as Becca King, twin sister of Dr. Mel King in the MAX series, The Pitt, and as Gia in Amazon Studios' As We See It. She can be heard as the English voice of the lead character, 'Tina', in the Disney Plus series Team Chocolate, and seen guest-starring in NBC's Magnum P.I. Season 5 as Becca Sullivan. As an autistic artist, she uses her unique position to advocate for disability rights in the workplace and inclusivity in front of and behind the camera in Hollywood.

Her most recent passion, is promoting her first children's book, Oh, Tal! Not Today. Published together with fellow Atypical colleague and award-winning artist, Michael Richey White. All proceeds from sale of the book are donated to organizations that lift up kids with differences.

When she's not acting, Tal flexes her creative muscles with editing and writing.

She also produces and hosts the horror podcast, Hairy Yarns. She's an avid horror movie fan, lover of rock music, and is a true crime enthusiast, and when it comes to her presence in the public eye, she wants people to see her as a real person who's doing their job authentically and doing their best to advocate for equality and disability. She has permanently relocated to Los Angeles, where she lives with her cat Winifred.
