His role on Dallas brought him the biggest attention โ his character caused no shortage of complications between the show’s main couple, J.R. and Sue Ellen Ewing.
Martin also had a small career in feature films, taking parts in 1973’s Westworld and The Lonely Lady. Later in his life, he spent much of his time introducing inner-city kids to filmmaking.
Martin is survived by his son, Christian Martin, wife Yu Wei, daughter-in-law Liz Cole and two grandchildren. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.
