I know a woman singer/songwriter who is a true introvert.   She finds it 
painful to walk on stage
and even more painful to have any hype about her.   She is also a really 
excellent artist and
her desire to create overcomes here desire for anonymity.
It does hurt her ability to become more famous, surely,  but, in her 
case, it's not a marketing
ploy,  it's the way she's built.

besides,  going annonymous always affords one the ability to wear a huge
Mouse head or to don a Fried Chicken Bucket as a disguise......lol.
