Marty Lacker was one of Elvis Presley's' most trusted friends as well as being part of the infamous group of men who lived with, worked with, had personal and professional relationships with Elvis and were known as "The Memphis Mafia".

Marty first met Elvis when he was in junior High School in Memphis Tennessee. When Elvis married Priscilla, which occurred on May 1, 1967, Marty Lacker was one of two "best men" that Elvis chose.

Along with being a trusted friend Marty worked with Elvis in several positions including bookkeeper, secretary, and "sounding board". However, no "title" can fully/adequately define the relationship between Elvis and Marty that endured for three decades.

Since Elvis' passing Marty has been a tireless advocate about Elvis and has (thankfully) shared his; memories, passions, insights, etc. about Elvis in several books and DVD productions.
IMDb Mini Biography By: Jeff Schrembs

The Memphis Mafia was the nickname given by the media to a group of Elvis Presley's friends, associates, employees and cousins whose main functions were to accompany, protect, and serve Presley from the beginning of his career in 1954 until his death in 1977. Several members filled practical roles; for instance, they were employed to work for Presley as bodyguards or on tour logistics and scheduling. In these cases Presley paid salaries, but most lived off fringe benefits such as gifts, cars, houses and bonuses. Over the years, the number of members grew and changed, but for the most part there was a core group who spent much time with Presley
