Martin's first job was at Disneyland, selling guidebooks on weekends and full-time during his school's summer break.

During World War II, in the United Kingdom, Martin's father had appeared in a production of Our Town with Raymond Massey. One of his earliest memories is of seeing his father, as an extra, serving drinks onstage at the Call Board Theatre on Melrose Place. Martin was a cheerleader of Garden Grove High School.
