The Martin family is a fictional family on the popular ABC daytime soap opera, All My Children.
The Martin family have been the cornerstone of Pine Valley since All My Children’s inception in 1970. Even before Joe Martin married Ruth Martin, Kate Martin was a symbol of stability and strong family values. Nowadays, Joe spends his days balancing his work as a doctor, and the tumultuous love lives of his many children and grandchildren. As of 2009, Joe and Ruth Martin have since retired and moved to Florida.
