John Martin's life leading up to his career may have led him to the success he later attained. Martin was born June 2, 1893 in Louisville, Kentucky and was immediately influenced by his mother's love of musical theatre.〔"John Martin." 2007. The Zachary Solov Foundation. 30. Mar. 2008 < http://solovfoundation.org>〕 After his education at the Louisville Male High School, he held several jobs as actor, publicist, and editor in Louisville and New York.〔"John Martin." 2007. The Zachary Solov Foundation. 30. Mar. 2008 〕〔Cohen, Selma Jeanna, ed. "John Martin." ''International Encyclopedia of Dance.'' Vol. 4. 1998. 272〕 During World War I, he served in the Aviation Section of the Army Signal Corps, after which he returned to theatre working with the Chicago Little Theatre where he met his wife Hettie Louise Mick.〔 They married in 1918. He also served as director and press agent for many different theatre projects.〔 Over the years, Martin developed an interest in the actor/director/drama teacher Konstantin Stanislavsky's system which expressed the "dramatic impulses that arise within"〔Conner, Lynne Thompson. The American Modern Dance and its Critics: ''A History of
Journalistic Dance Criticism in the United States,'' 1850-1934. Michigan: UMI, 1994. 175〕
Many have claimed that Stanislavsky's ideas influenced Martin's interest in modern dance because it displays this quality.
