Anne Stringfield remained an enigmatic figure despite being married to one of the most prominent comedians and actors on Earth, Steve Martin.
Before gaining recognition as being wife to Steve Martin, the 46-year-old was an editor and fact checker for The New Yorker Magazine. Later, working as a freelance writer, she made a name for herself by reviewing art and off-Broadway plays for magazines like Vogue.
To shine a light on Anne and her relationship with Martin, their wedding, their daughter and her family, we have compiled a list of fascinating wikis.
