His debut as a film producer was David and Lisa, which received two Oscar nominations and innumerable awards. He was the executive producer of 1990's Oscar winner, My Left Foot, which earned five Academy Award nominations and Oscars for Best Actor and Best Supporting Actress.

Heller's commitment to high quality films has been the hallmark of his career. His film, The Eavesdropper won acclaim as Best Film at Mar del Plata and honors at both the New York and London Film Festivals. It was also nominated for Best Foreign Film at the French Awards, as was his film Secret Ceremony, starring Elizabeth Taylor and Mia Farrow.

Although Heller worked as a successful Warner Bros. executive, overseeing such films as Skin Game, starring James Garner, and Dirty Harry, starring Clint Eastwood, he prefers the life of the independent producer. In that role he is able to combine the goal of making quality films with his love of hands-on involvement in the process of film-making. A process that has so far created and developed over 30 feature films and numerous projects in allied fields.
