Mary Garibaldi was the daughter of Michael Garibaldi and Lise Hampton. Mary grew up on Mars, living with her parents in their apartment in Mars Dome One and by the age of four had inherited her mother's stubborn streak, her father's ability to drive people crazy and had developed a particular distaste for Swedish meatballs. As a child, her room was filled with Red Sox posters, stuffed animals, model starships, her mobile of jeuf that had been a gift from Delenn and would often have a scattering of click-bricks on the floor.
