In 1943, Arnold Frederic Hartman, of American origin, married Angélica de Jesús Ortiz Sandoval. Being a musician from the American Union, he toured almost the entire country with his wife, but his place of residence was the city of Los Angeles, California, until the news of his wife's pregnancy arrived. From a very young age, Angélica María experienced the stage and music up close, thanks to the vocation of her father. However, the union of her parents ended when the girl was five years old. For this reason, Angélica Ortiz returned to live in Mexico City with her daughter, next to her parents and siblings.
