'''Heezen Glacier''' ({{coord|72|45|S|61|18|W|source:GNIS|display=inline,title}}) is a [[glacier]] flowing northeast from the eastern portion of the [[Wegener Range]] and entering [[Violante Inlet]] east of [[Mount Reynolds (Antarctica)|Mount Reynolds]], on the [[Black Coast]] of [[Palmer Land]], Antarctica. It was mapped by the [[United States Geological Survey]] from aerial photographs taken by the [[U.S. Navy]], 1966–69. In association with the names of oceanographers grouped in this area, it was named by the [[UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee]] in 1977 after [[Bruce C. Heezen]], an American marine geologist and oceanographer who was Professor of Geology at [[Columbia University]]'s [[Lamont–Doherty Geological Observatory]], 1964–77.<ref name=gnis/>
