Lauren Anderson is an American ballet dancer and a former principal dancer with the Houston Ballet. In 1990, she was one of the first African-American ballerinas to become a principal for a major dance company, an important milestone in American ballet. She appeared in many ballets such as Don Quixote, Cleopatra, and The Nutcracker. She retired from the Houston Ballet in 2006 and retired from dance altogether in 2009. In 2016, Anderson had her pointe shoes from her final performance placed in the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture.
It’s worth noting that there was a famous Lauren before Lauren Bacall. The American painter Lauren Ford (1891-1973). Though it looks like Lauren was actually her middle name and went by it instead of her first name, which was Julia. Interesting to wonder if Ford is where the true origin of this name as a female name is.

I used to like this name, but I've heard it so much that I find it a bit boring now. The fact that this is the name of the evil, bigoted Lauren Southern doesn't help, who said, among other things, that we should make disabled and sick people feel ashamed for needing welfare. May she rot in Hell.

Actually, the first well-known woman named Lauren was the hotel heiress and painter Lauren Ford (1891-1973). She and her religious-themed art were featured several times in "Life" magazine during the 1930s and 1940s, and it's probable Howard Hawks got the idea of giving the name to Lauren Bacall from knowing about Ford.
