Hartmann was the son of Sigmund Hartman and Pepi Schweiger, who had immigrated from Hungary in December 1879. His father discovered his musical talents early on, and from the age of 6 Arthur studied with the Dutch-born violinist and composer Martinus van Gelder (1854–1941). Later, Hartmann would adopt "Martinus" as a middle name in his teacher's honor.[1]

Uncle to writer/artist Alfred Bendiner (1899–1964)

gollark: It must really love reinterpet_casting.
gollark: I had to write a very short python script to generate password hashes for putting in the config file for my thingy.
gollark: It's mildly annoying that node.js doesn't seem to have a module to read passwords from stdin (without, you know, displaying them like it would for other text prompt things).
gollark: You know, when I read the challenge description I assumed it meant "interpreter program in highish-level language", not "incomprehensible interpreter for Windows".
gollark: But not the second one, that's evil and heresy.
