==Biography==
Anderson, an only child, was born in Minneapolis, Minn., and attended the private Breck School, then in St. Paul. A lifelong outdoorsman, he spent much of his boyhood at the family home in the Brainerd lakes area north of the Twin Cities.〔Davich, Sheri. ("For the Love of Boats: Adirondack style boathouse deeply rooted on Nisswa Lake" ), ''Lake and Home Magazine'', October/November 2010. Retrieved 12 March 2012.〕 At the urging of his father, a successful plumbing contractor, he enrolled at the United States Military Academy at West Point and played football and basketball. After he graduated in 1961 with a B.S. in civil engineering, Anderson served in the U.S. Army at Luke Air Force Base in Phoenix, Arizona, where he oversaw materials procurement and construction services and was promoted to first lieutenant.
In 1964, Anderson returned to the Twin Cities and took over Asbestos Products, Inc., an insulation contractor that was a division of his father's business. After he purchased an industrial fire sprinkler company in 1969, Anderson continued to acquire other firms, primarily in the construction and fire-protection fields. The growing conglomerate was renamed APi Group Inc. in 1997.
Today, the parent corporation consists of 37 affiliates with some 9,000 employees. While its holdings remain centered in the Upper Midwest, APi owns companies across the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. In 2008, Forbes ranked APi at 351 among America's largest private companies, estimating its annual revenues at $1.35 billion.〔Reifman, Shlomo; Murphy, Andrea D.
