Family Tree

The illustrious Larry Martin Hagman, born September 21st, 1931 in Fort Worth, Texas, was the son of the legendary actress Mary Martin and district attorney. After his parents' divorce, he moved to Los Angeles to live with his grandmother before returning to his mother's place as she launched her Broadway career. Following his attendance at Bard College, he decided to follow in his mother's footsteps into the acting world. His first stage tryout was with the Margo Jones Theatre-in-the-Round in Dallas. His mother's career was born out of a tumultuous past; originally a dance instructor, she was driven out of her Texas home by an evangelical-adherent who burned down her studio, forcing her to seek her fortune in New York City. She introduced the song "My Heart Belongs to Daddy" on Broadway, before making a name for herself in Hollywood musicals and finding her favorite role as Peter Pan.
