Heath Ledger was one of the most charismatic and powerful screen presences of his generation. Having established a high-profile acting career at age 21 in A Knight s Tale, the young Australian went on to pursue a succession of diverse and often subversive roles that challenged the film industry's initial impression of him as a mere teen idol.
Brian J. Robb is the author of Johnny Depp: A Modern Rebel and The Leonardo DiCaprio Album, which remained on the New York Times and Sunday Times bestseller lists for three months.
