Early life

A San Luis Potosí native, Roldán was born Emma Roldán Reyna to hotel owners José María Roldán and Virginia Reyna, the second of four siblings.[1] Her parents' hotel was located in front of the "Teatro de la Paz" in San Luis Potosí, where theatrical companies would perform.[1] It is there where she met her husband Pedro Jesús Ojeda with whom she procreated two children, Emma Ojeda Roldán and Pedro Ojeda Roldán.[1] She and her husband moved to Monterrey, but they would tour across the country, a life she disliked.[1] They later divorced and Roldán relocated to her parents' home in Potosí.[1]
