Musical artist
Barbara Ann "Bobbi" Martin (November 29, 1939 – May 2, 2000) was an American country and pop music singer, songwriter, and guitarist.
She grew up in Oslo, Minnesota and began her singing career in Baltimore, working her way up from local venues onto the national nightclub circuit.[1]
Martin was born to Virginia Chaney (1919-1971) and an unknown father.
Her mother refused to tell her the name of her birth father, something that haunted Bobbi her entire life.[2
