Can a wife be held responsible for debt her husband incurs due to a failed business venture?

No, unless she were a co-owner of the business or a co-borrower of cosigner of loans that were business related. A creditor might try to hold a spouse responsible if the couple reside in a community property state. In such circumstances the non owner spouse might wish to consider using an "innocent spousal defense."
