Hazel P. Heath (née Parris; December 9, 1909 – May 29, 1998) was an American politician and an entrepreneur who manufactured and sold gift boxes of jams and jellies made of wild local berries from Homer, Alaska. She founded "Alaska Wild Berry Products" with her husband Ken in 1946. The couple also owned an art shop and gallery, and she was arts and crafts editor for Alaska magazine. Heath served as mayor of Homer for eight years, and was a National Republican delegate and a member of many local, state and federal boards and commissions. She was a founder of the Pratt Museum, and was the first woman president of the Alaska Municipal League Conference of Mayors. The Homer Chamber of Commerce named her the 1977 "Citizen of the Year", and the University of Alaska honored her with a Meritorious Service Award in 1989.
