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.

Famous quotes containing the word early:
“Foolish prater, What dost thou
So early at my window do?
Cruel bird, thou’st ta’en away
A dream out of my arms to-day;
A dream that ne’er must equall’d be
By all that waking eyes may see.
Thou this damage to repair
Nothing half so sweet and fair,
Nothing half so good, canst bring,
Tho’ men say thou bring’st the Spring.”
—Abraham Cowley (1618–1667)
