Heath Ledger was born on the 4th April in 1979 in Perth, Australia.
There he lived until his 16th birthday, when he left school with his best friend to
start his career in New York City.
Heath was married to Michelle Williams. Together they had a daughter named Matilda Rose.
Ledger had his film debut in 1997 with the film „Blackrock“.
Some of his most famous films are for example, „10 things I hate about you“, „A Knight´s Tale“,
„The Four Feathers“, „Casanova“, „Brokeback Mountain“, „I´m not there“ and „Batman, the dark knight“.
Heath also got a Golden Globe for the best actor in the category Drama in the film „Casanova“.
But on the 22nd January Heath Ledger was found dead in his apartment at 421 Broome Street in Manhattan, New York.
Some doctors concludet that the manner of his death was an accident resulting from the abuse of prescription medications.
Insiders also say that Heath suffered from depressions, colds and related ailments because of his role as „The Joker“ in „the dark knight“.
In an interview Heath explained that he couldn´t sleep anymore and that he couldn´t stop thinking about „The Joker“. His body was exhausted and his mind was still going. So Ledger started to take Ambien pills.
In my opinian Heath shouldn´t have died so young, because he was one of the best actors of his generation.
R.I.P.
Heath: we miss you!!!
