Early Anthony
Todd Anthony Martin is of German Russian descent and was born March 4, 1966 in Sheboygan, Wisconsin U.S.A. His great grandfather fled Russia just prior to the Russian Revolution. He is the first of two children born to David and Georgene Martin. Born to a working-class family in a Midwestern town, Anthony began his career without the advantages of financial backing or theatrical connections. His early beginnings and news clippings indicate an unusually early effort to document and substantiate his escapes which has since become the cornerstone of his career. His first police substantiated escape was at the age of 12 while still in elementary school. He currently offers a reward to anyone who can prove he resorts to the use of any fake locks or handcuffs.
