Martin’s father was a Greek Orthodox priest and his mother is a nutritionist. He was raised in Toms River, New Jersey. Martin attended Yale University and then New York University School of Law on a full scholarship. Despite objections from his family, he dropped out a year before graduation to pursue a career in comedy. Regarding the decision, Martin has said:

Its weird to make a decision where everyone in your life disapproves, pretty vocally and directly. They said, “You’ve got one year left. Just do it.” I had a full scholarship so I didnt have to pay for it. They asked, “Why dont you just get the degree so you can have it?” And I said, “You dont understand. I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do and now I know. I have the answer and its dumb to waste any more time.
