|{{Scroll-1|content='''Annie Edison''' (portrayed by [[Alison Brie]]) is a graduate of [[Greendale Community College]]. She is the daughter of a Jewish mother and an Episcopalian father. Her parents divorced and she, along with her brother [[Anthony Edison|Anthony]], were raised by their mother. At a very young age, Annie's mother pushed her hard to succeed academically. In her teens, she attended [[Riverside High School]] along with her then crush [[Troy Barnes]]. She ended up losing her college scholarship (and her virginity) and dropped out of high school due to an addiction to [[Adderall]]. Her drug abuse led to a nervous breakdown that culminated in her jumping through a plate glass window and suffering severe injuries. Her mother wanted to ignore the incident, but Annie chose to confront the addiction and go to rehab. As a result, Annie became estranged from her family and eventually moved out. She began attending Greendale Community College at the age of 18, and it's hinted that one of the main reasons is because Troy was going there. During her time at college she became close friends with him and their Spanish [[study group]]. After four years, she graduated and ironically got a job with a pharmaceutical company. She unexpectedly reunited with her study group and decided to re-enroll to pursue a degree in Forensics. Along with her friends, she also joined a group formed to improve campus life called the "[[Save Greendale Committee]]". At the end of the 2015 Spring semester she left Greendale to participate in an internship she was offered with the F.B.I. over the summer break. }}

| style="border:0px solid black;" |Although she is young, Annie has overcome a lot of personal hardships including a drug addiction, her subsequent estrangement from her parents, and poor living conditions in a [[Dildopolis|disreputable and dangerous neighborhood]]. Even with these setbacks, she still maintains a bright and optimistic disposition. She is a typical [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_A_and_Type_B_personality_theory Type A personality]; ambitious, studious and very well-organized. Although [[Jeff]] is the ''de'' ''facto'' leader of [[the study group]], she usually takes charge when it comes to actually running the study sessions. She continued this role after joining the Save Greendale Committee in her fifth year at school. A romantic at heart, she is often drawn to strong alpha-male type personalities. This has been demonstrated by her former schoolgirl crush on [[Troy and Annie|Troy]] when he was a quarterback in high school as well as her ongoing attraction to [[Jeff and Annie|Jeff]]. Despite Annie's seemingly innocent demeanor, she has displayed a more manipulative side on occasion. In her freshmen year at school, she would often use her "[[Running gags|Disney face]]" to guilt people and went to the extreme of ratting out [[Ben Chang|Señor Chang]]'s fake credentials as a teacher in order to keep the study group together. She has grown up a lot since then but has had occasional relapses into [[Geography of Global Conflict|immaturity]].

==Relationships==
===In the [[the study group]]===
Annie’s role in the original study group was to be in charge of the actual study sessions. Jeff left the more mundane aspects of organizing and running the daily meetings to her as she excelled at planning those activities. She continued doing this when she joined the Save Greendale Committee that was formed. An unintentional oversight by the committee which cost the school a lot of money forced Annie to cede this role to a professional administrator named Frankie Dart. However, this allowed Annie to have more free time which she used to hang out with Abed and study for her new major Forensics.

As the more compassionate members of the study group, they often take issue with many of the morally ambiguous antics of their friends.

In spite of this, they have developed a good friendship and will often find the same things adorable. This leads to them both saying "Aww!" at the same time, which has become a [[Running gags|running gag]] on the show.

|image=CP212_Pierce_actually_does_something_nice_for_once.png
|summary =Annie has a higher tolerance for Pierce's behavior than the rest of the study group. She does her best to look past his flaws to see the good person inside. Pierce appreciates this and has stated several times he considers her his favorite in the study group. He once helped her out financially, although he used the favor to guilt her into expanding a part he had in a play she wrote. She is the only one Pierce gave a legitimate bequeathal to when he faked being on his deathbed. Annie found herself the only one in the group to defend Pierce's increasingly antagonistic behavior in their second year. When a vote was held on Pierce's continued membership in the group, Annie was the lone dissenter to keep him in.

When membership is put to a vote, Jeff convinced the undecided Shirley to use her swing vote for Chang instead. Annie called Jeff out over his actions but he refuses to own up to any feelings of jealousy. Annie eventually asked Rich out, but he declined, claiming that she was too young.
