LE HIRSCH was most recently seen in writer-director Sean Penn's critically acclaimed drama "Into the Wild," based on the best-selling book by Jon Krakauer. Hirsch starred as Christopher McCandless, the idealistic college graduate who abandoned civilization for the Alaskan wilderness. For his work in the film, Hirsch won the National Board of Review Award for Breakthrough Performance by an Actor and received the Rising Star Award at this year's Palm Springs International Film Festival. He was also nominated for two Screen Actors Guild Awards, a Critics Choice Award and a Gotham Award.

Previously, Hirsch starred in Nick Cassavetes' true-life crime drama "Alpha Dog," along with an ensemble cast which also featured Justin Timberlake, Sharon Stone and Bruce Willis. The film premiered to rave reviews at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival.

Hirsch's additional credits include Catherine Hardwicke's "Lords of Dogtown," with Heath Ledger; "Imaginary Heroes," directed by Dan Harris and also starring Sigourney Weaver and Jeff Daniels; "The Girl Next Door," with Elisha Cuthbert; the film festival favorite "The Mudge Boy"; "The Emperor's Club," with Kevin Kline and Embeth Davidtz; and "The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys," co-starring Kieran Culkin and Jodie Foster.

Hirsch is currently in production in San Francisco on Gus Van Sant's biopic "Milk," in which he stars with Sean Penn, Josh Brolin and James Franco. The film chronicles the life of Harvey Milk, a San Francisco city supervisor and the country's first openly gay elected official, who was assassinated in 1978. Hirsch is portraying gay rights activist Cleve Jones, a Milk ally who went on to found the NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt.

Born in Los Angeles, Hirsch grew up in Los Angeles and Santa Fe, New Mexico.
