Author Bio
Growing up in Crested Butte, Colorado, population 1635, Heidi Pratt is a story-book example of the small town girl making it big and living the “American Dream” in Hollywood.
Born Heidi Blair Montag on September 15, 1986, Pratt attended one semester at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco, where she met MTV’s Laguna Beach star Lauren Conrad. It was Conrad who brought her onto the reality TV scene in 2005 during Season 2 of popular reality show when she accompanied Conrad back to Orange County. Her friendship with Conrad and further studies at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising (FIDM) led to a featured role in the spin-off reality show, The Hills.
After leaving FDIM in the fall of 2005, Pratt began working at event production company, Bolthouse Productions. Over the course of two years, she was promoted to event planner, met the love of her life, Spencer Pratt, and got fired and re-hired – all of which was caught on camera. Pratt is currently in her fifth season of The Hills.
In addition to her career in television, Pratt is a musician, fashion designer, aspiring actress and president of her own music label, Heidi Montag Records. She collaborated with producer David Foster on her first single “Body Language” in February 2007 and will be soon releasing her own self-titled album.
In April 2008, Pratt debuted her fashion line, Heidiwood, at the Hollywood and Highland shopping center fashion show in Hollywood, California. Pratt plans to release another line in 2009.
Pratt recently married her manager and The Hills co-star, Spencer Pratt.
