Actual birth name?[edit]

Is it Martha Alter, or Marty Alter as her Woodstock School alumni page states?

She has written several books like Perpetual Mourning: Widowhood in rural India. And on the cover she writes her name as Martha Alter Chen. GShacklebolt (talk) 15:21, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

American academic[edit]
