Martin Short’s daughter, Katherine, has taken her own life … TMZ has learned.
The 42-year-old died from a self inflicted gunshot wound … law enforcement sources tell TMZ.
LAPD responded to her Hollywood Hills home Monday, shortly after 6 PM.
Katherine — the adopted daughter of Short and Nancy Dolman, his wife of 30 years who passed away in 2010 — worked as a social worker in Los Angeles.
Katherine was involved in a charity called Bring Change 2 Mind which worked to break down stigmas connected to mental health issues.
While her father is obviously very famous, Katherine mostly stayed out of the public eye … attending a few events with her father throughout the years.
Short has a sold-out show with Steve Martin scheduled for Saturday in Minneapolis … it’s unclear at this time if he will perform.
