Trivia

  • Marta is the niece of actor Van Heflin and Frances E. Neal.
  • Her role as "Sheila Shea" in Un couple parfait (1979) was originally written for Sandy Dennis. Paul Dooley was seriously allergic to cats, though and when cat lover Dennis would come to the script readings with up to five cats at a time, he was briefly hospitalized. As a result, Allan F. Nicholls re-wrote the role of "Sheila Shea" from an Earth Mother type to the young singer/groupie played by Marta Heflin after her favorable performance as a bride's maid in Robert Altman's Un mariage (1978).
  • Niece of the late actress Frances Heflin and composer Sol Kaplan.
  • Cousin of actress Mady Kaplan and director Jonathan Kaplan.
  • Cousin of Nora Heflin.
