I believe Heath Ledger should be considered a hero because he's an amazing actor. He won best supporting actor award, a golden globe award and he helps me believe that i can be anyone i want to be.

Heath Ledger had very big movie career. He was on a t.v show called "Sweat" at 16 years old in Australia. When he was done he moved to The U.S.A and played a role in "Blackrock" in 1997. Next he went onto "10 Things I Hate About You" in 1999. He kept going to the movie called "The Patriot" in 2000. Next he found himself dating Heather Graham, while shooting "A Knights Tale" in 2001. Then they broke up when the movie was being released. He had no choice but to move on, he then came to "Ned Kelly" in 2003. Ledger goes onto a movie called "Brokeback Mountin" in 2005. Which was a gay cowboy movie where he had to kiss a guy on set. His last movie was "The Dark Night" in 2008 as the" Joker."

Heath started out in Perth, Australia, had a nice life out there, until he moved into the U.S.A. He had a bigger career in the U.S, than in Australia. He has love interest Noami, Watts. He soon got married and had a little girl named Matilda, Rose. He started on a movie called "The Dark Knight" and he was so good at playing his role that he couldn't sleep, and started taking drugs. He mixed so many of them together, that he died on January 21, 2008. He had a cool life. But that was it.

One of my favorite movies that Heath Ledger did was, "The Dark Knight" where he played a role as "The Joker". No one has ever played really as good as Heath. He won lots of awards even though he's dead. He was a very cool actor to me. When I researched him I didn't think that was more of him, well you know what they say: there's more than what meets the eye. I think that Heath Ledger is awesome! [just my opinion]

Heath Ledger had a big family: well first there's his dad, Kim Ledger, and his uncle Hayden Ledger, and Mike Ledger [another uncle], Michelle, [former girlfriend], His mom is Sally Ledger. He had a full sister named Kate Ledger. He didn't have a very big family but big enough! He's very missed by the whole family [+ Noami's family].
