Dean Paul Martin Movies
The son of actor/singer
Dean Martin and Dean's second wife Jeannie,
Dean Paul Martin inaugurated his own career as a member of the teenage rock group Dino, Desi and Billy (Desi was
Desi Arnaz Jr.) The younger Martin attempted an acting career, which except for a well-received performance in 1979's
Players was largely unremarkable. Though he would never set any fires at the box office, Martin distinguished himself as a top tennis pro, and (from all reports) as one of the nicest second-generation celebrities in Hollywood. For a short while, Martin was married to Romeo and Juliet leading lady
Olivia Hussey. An officer in the California Air National Guard, 35-year-old
Dean Paul Martin was killed in a jet crash during a training mission. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
