“Love Is A Battlefield” Martha (Marty) Gellhorn: Age 28-35, Tall, blonde, brainy and unbelievably brave. She is considered a great beauty with her attractiveness augmented by her long, lean body, lots of attitude and being a world-class flirt. A raspy-voiced rebel with razor-sharp humor, the straight-talking Marty comfortably curses in her upper-class accent. When our story begins, she is filled with doubts & insecurities “not knowing who I am, what I love or why I even live!” She becomes a world-famous war correspondent with an irrepressible rage against injustice dedicated to reporting the impact war has on the innocent. Fiercely independent and near- pathologically claustrophobic, she’s most comfortable when on the move. The greatly-conflicted Martha loves Hemingway deeply but her career is the most important thing in her life. (See “Martha” section for more info.)
