Martha Sharp Crawford von Bülow (born September 1, 1932 in Manassas, Virginia) is an American heiress and was a socialite and philanthropist. She was the wife of Claus von Bülow. Known as Sunny, she has been in a persistent vegetative state since 1980, following an unexplained coma. The coma was attributed to hypoglycemia from injected insulin, and her husband was convicted of attempted murder after a highly publicized trial. The conviction was overturned by an appeals court, an incident dramatized in the movie Reversal of Fortune. Many aspects of her persistent vegetative state remain unexplained and a subject of conjecture and controversy.
