Married 1943 to Martin Shapiro and had two children, Robert (Jacqueline) and Daniel (Lynne).

Her second husband, Gerard Oestreicher, was the chairman of Oestreicher Realty and a Broadway producer. He died in 1987. Irma became a Broadway angel and then a producer in her own right. She produced "Cantorial", "Mademoiselle Colombe", and co-produced "Long Day's Journey Into Night" for which she received a Tony nomination. She was a director of the American Theatre Hall of Fame.
