Growing up in  Texas, she was married early to Benjamin Hagman and gave birth to her  first child, Larry Hagman. She was divorced even more quickly. Martin  left little Larry with her parents and took off for Hollywood. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShe  didn't make a dent in the movie industry and was lured to New York where  she found herself auditioning for Cole Porter and his new show \u003ci\u003eLeave  It to Me!\u003c\/i\u003e After she sang the bawdy \"My Heart Belongs to Daddy\", she  ended up on the cover of \u003ci\u003eLife\u003c\/i\u003e magazine.
