Personal Life
While attending the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque, Marshall met Michael Henry, a football player. She quit college after three years, married him in 1961, and they had a daughter, Tracy, who later guest-starred on Laverne & Shirley. Marshall worked as a secretary and later as a tap dance teacher. The marriage lasted two years. On April 10, 1971, Marshall married actor/director Rob Reiner, and her daughter took the name of Tracy Reiner. The marriage would last until 1981. Soon after her divorce from Reiner, Marshall dated actor Larry Breeding, who subsequently went on to guest star on Laverne & Shirley during its seventh and eighth seasons. The two were still involved when Breeding was killed in a car accident on the Hollywood Freeway on September 28, 1982 (with his third Laverne & Shirley appearance airing posthumously).
