Heiða Guðný Ásgeirsdóttir (born 26 April 1978) is an Icelandic sheep farmer and former model who serves as a deputy member of the Althing.

Career

From her late teens until she was 23, Heiða worked as a fashion model, including in New York City; she returned to take over her parents' sheep farm, Ljótarstaðir on the River {{ill|Tungufljót|is|Tungufljót (Vestur-Skaftafellssýslu)}}, after her father could no longer manage it. He has since died; she lives there with her mother and also runs occasional walking tours of the farm, which covers {{convert|6464|ha|acre}} and has about 500 sheep.[1][2][3][4] {{As of|2014}} she was possibly the only Icelandic woman shearing sheep;[5] in February 2017 she was the only female contestant in the machine shearing division at the World Shearing and Woolhandling Championships in New Zealand.[1][4][6]

She has also worked in construction and as a local police officer,[7] and is on the board of the nearby Vatnajökull National Park.[3] In 2017 she modelled again, for a new Icelandic brand.[8]

Heiða became involved in environmental politics fighting plans to construct a hydro-electric plant which would involve damming the river and flooding much of her farm.[1][2][4][9] She was elected as an alternate member of the Althing in the 2017 elections, representing the South constituency for the Left-Green Movement,[7][10] and made her maiden speech on 18 September 2018.[11]

Biography

In 2016 she was the subject of novelist and poet Steinunn Sigurðardóttir's first non-fiction book, Heiða – Fjalldalabóndi (Heiða – The Farmer in the Valley, her local nickname).[1][6][12][13]
