Famously ‘The King of Cool,’ Dean Martin’s résumé included actor, comedian, singer, film producer, entertainer extraordinaire, and of course as a charismatic member of the Rat Pack. His wife Jeanne, a former Orange Bowl queen from Coral Gables, Florida, had an affinity for the arts of Mexico, and collected pre-Columbian pottery and traditional Mexican textiles.
