History
Trivia
- Her original casting call description: Anita, 45-50, a sexy sorceress who has lived apart from her family due to their fear of her magic. She is extremely protective of others such as herself.[2]
"Anita, a sexy and earthy sorceress who is devoted to taking in lost souls. However, don't let her maternal instincts fool you, because she can be ferocious when it comes to the people she cares about."[3] - The character seems to have been changed from the original casting call, as ABC's press release for Child of the Moon later described Anita as "the charismatic and mysterious leader of a pack of humans who, like Red, turn out to be wolves."[1]
- Anita shares the same first name as the female human in the Disney film 101 Dalmatians, Anita Radcliffe.
- In Sanskrit name means without guile; leader and in Spanish the name is a pet form of Ana.
