Martin 'Marty' Reisman (February 1, 1930 – December 7, 2012) was an American champion table tennis player and author.

[citation needed] Reisman started playing table tennis at the age of 12 in Manhattan's Lower East Side,[2] and then as a hustler in New York in the 1940s, playing for bets and prizes, notably at Lawrence's Broadway Table Tennis Club at 54th Street and Broadway.

His fifth medal came in 1952 in the men's doubles with Douglas Cartland at the 1952 World Table Tennis Championships.

He and Cartland performed a comedy table tennis routine as the opening act for the Harlem Globetrotters.

[5] In later life, Reisman continued to be one of the most visible presences and known personalities in the table tennis world.
