Martha Joan Hart (née Patterson; born October 31, 1966) is a Canadian philanthropist and researcher known for her advocacy work following the 1999 death of her husband, Owen Hart. After her husband died in a free falling accident at Over the Edge (1999), Hart sued the World Wrestling Federation (now WWE). She later wrote a bestselling book about her husband's life and founded a charity in his name (The Owen Hart Foundation). She has subsequently been involved in several legal cases involving her husband's image.
