A new performing arts center in Perth, Australia, will bear the name of Heath Ledger, marking the first time the late actor's name will be formally commemorated, the West Australian reports. Ledger "was always supporting young actors in whatever ways he could," said the premier of Western Australia. "I think what we're doing is continuing that support."
"I really feel that there's not a lot of things he'd put his name to but he'd put his name to that," said Kim Ledger, Heath's father. (More Perth stories.)
