Very sad news: As you've probably already heard, Heath Ledger was found dead in a Manhattan apartment today. He was only 28. The New York Times has some details.

In August 2000, right as his career was taking off, Ledger appeared on the cover of Vanity Fair. The cover story was by Kevin Sessums; you can read it here. (Sessums has also contributed a Heath Ledger reminiscence to VF Daily.)
