Heath Ledger, Hollywood's Dark Star by Brian J. Robb

Heath Ledger, Hollywood's Dark Star by Brian J. Robb, 207 pages

This was a very good biography on Heath's death.  This book was full of details on his life in Australia, and his break in TV and films.  I especially enjoyed the highlights of his film career, including the women he met on set and dated.  The book highlights his trouble with drugs and his relationship with Michelle Williams, the mother of his young daughter.  What unfolds is the rise of a star and his tragic fall into the dark world of prescription drug abuse after filming the Batman movie. The book describes the day he is found dead in his apartment and includes many great pictures!
