Rodney Earl Anderson (born 1968) is a Republican member of the Texas House of Representatives for District 105 based in his native Grand Prairie in Dallas County, Texas. He initially won election to District 105 of the Texas House in 2014 and won re-election in 2016. He previously was elected to Texas House District 106 in 2010, but chose not to run for re-election.
Anderson's maternal grandfather, Bob Harless, moved his family to Grand Prairie in the early 1950s before the city had barely begun to develop. Harless was a house painter and owned a small business in Grand Prairie for more than four decades. Anderson is a son of Bennie and Sandra Anderson. After graduation from Grand Prairie High School, Anderson waited tables to help to pay his expenses through the University of Texas at Arlington, from which he acquired in 1990 a Bachelor of Business Administration degree in Real Estate. As a UTA student, he was an analyst for what became the Bank of America, in which capacity he handled more than thirty properties valued in excess of $60 million. For eleven years afterwards, he was employed by Chicago Title Company, the largest company of its kind in the United States, with branch offices across the country. He later was president of the Sierra Title Company of North Texas in Flower Mound in Denton County. He is currently the vice president of the Commerce Land and Title Company in Grand Prairie.
In 1991, Anderson married the former Heather Jerden, the daughter of a school principal. The couple has three children. He is affiliated with the Boy Scouts of America, Rotary International, the Parent-Teacher Association, and the Young Men's Christian Association.
