Heather enjoyed special guest-star status on several episodes of NBC-TV's Scrubs in the Fall of 2004. Hepburn's niece is actress Katharine Houghton, whom appeared with her in Guess Who's Coming to Dinner (1967), and Hepburn's grand-niece is actress, Schuyler Grant. She was named by People Magazine as one of the "50 Most Beautiful People in the World 2001" [1] (http://www.imdb.com/Bio?Graham,+Heather). Hepburn's professional legacy is today carried on within her family. More recently, she starred as Mary Kelly in the film From Hell (2001), based on the story of Jack the Ripper. A more lighthearted (though oddly accurate) portrayal of the older Hepburn was performed by comedian Martin Short on SCTV and Saturday Night Live. She has publically discussed her conversion to a new-age eastern-based religion and philosophy. Most recently she has been portrayed by Cate Blanchett in a 2004 movie about the life of Howard Hughes — The Aviator, directed by Martin Scorsese.

Heather Graham is currently estranged from her parents, though they are hopeful for a reconciliation. She was 96. She achieved international stardom in 1999 with her lead role as Felicity Shagwell in Mike Myers ' second Austin Powers comedy: The Spy who Shagged Me.. She died on June 29, 2003 at 2:50 p.m., at Fenwick, the Hepburn family home, in Old Saybrook, Connecticut. Though earlier Graham had a number of critcally noted acting parts including Nadine in Drugstore Cowboy 1989, her breakthrough role was that of Roller Girl in Boogie Nights (1997), for which she received several award nominations. Her autobiography, Me: Stories of My Life, was published in 1991. Heather moved to Hollywood where she worked different jobs while continuing to establish herself as a starlet. Hepburn had previously married and divorced Ludlow Ogden Smith and also had relationships with Leland Hayward and Howard Hughes.

After two years had passed, Heather dropped out of UCLA to pursue acting full time, over her parents objections. Though they were together until Tracy's death in 1967, the couple never married - reportedly because Tracy, a devout Catholic, would not divorce his wife. Their subsequent friendship led to Heather's being cast in Diggstown (1992) , which starred Woods. She and Tracy made a total of nine films together including Adam's Rib and Guess Who's Coming to Dinner. While pursuing a drama degree at UCLA, Heather met James Woods, the actor. In Woman of the Year (1942), she made her first appearance opposite Spencer Tracy, launching one of Hollywood's most famous romances. After high school, Heather enrolled in the University of California at Los Angeles. In 1932 her screen-test for RKO gained her a role in the George Cukor film A Bill of Divorcement (1932), opposite John Barrymore.

This difference of opinion may have cost her the lead role in Heathers in 1989, the dark high school comedy that made an instant star of Winona Ryder. Hepburn was born in Hartford, Connecticut and was educated at Bryn Mawr College; she received her degree in 1928 and debuted on Broadway that same year in Night Hostess. Later, her father and mother were insistent that she should not appear in any movie featuring sex. She was nominated for twelve Best Actress Academy Awards, more than any other actress, and was awarded a record four. Initially, Heather Graham's parents were very supportive of her budding acting career, with her mom driving her to her auditions.
