Grier Martin is a Democratic member of the North Carolina House of Representatives, representing District 34. Martin is running for re-election in the primary on May 8, 2018. The general election will take place on November 6, 2018.

He was first appointed to the chamber on June 1, 2013, replacing the outgoing Deborah K. Ross (D). He currently serves as the Democratic Conference Co-Chair.

Following an announcement in early May 2013 by Ross that she would resign, Martin expressed an interest in being appointed to her seat. Martin declined to challenge Ross in the 2012 election after being redrawn into the same district following the 2010 census. Without opposition, Martin was nominated by Wake County Democrats on May 28, 2013, and Governor Pat McCrory (R) appointed him, as dictated by state law, to serve the remainder of Ross' term on June 1, 2013. Martin was sworn in on the night of June 3, 2013.

Martin represented District 34 from 2005 to 2013.

Martin earned his B.A. from Davidson College in 1991 and his J.D. from the University of North Carolina School of Law in 1995. His professional experience includes working as a practicing attorney since 1995. He has served in the United States Army Reserve since 1991.
