Heather Graham is an American actress and fashion model. Her career starts after she finished high school and moved to Los Angeles. She got small roles in a variety of films, including Drugstore Cowboy (1989). When her career did not take off as quickly as she had hoped, Heather enrolled in the University of California at Los Angeles to get her degree in drama. It was there she was noticed by actor James Woods and he secured her a part in his film Diggstown (1992). Heather dropped out of UCLA after two years to pursue her acting career on a full-time basis. Aside from gaining a modeling contract with Emanuel Ungaro Liberte, Heather has starred in such films as Swingers (1996), a role she received after being taken out swing dancing by Jon Favreau, to blockbusters like Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999) and Boogie Nights (1997)

Born January 29, 1970, her primary personality traits are represented by the Chinese Zodiac elemental animal sign, the Earth Rooster. The Earth Rooster is much less flamboyant than the rest of the species, but that is more than made up for by their exceptional practicality, reliability and attention to detail. She is a builder who builds to last. She leads by example and often buries herself in her work. As with most Roosters, she can be a biting critic. And, with her keen powers of observation and organized methodology, she will find lots to criticize.
