Marcia Clark

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Marcia Rachel Clark (born 31 August 1953) was a prosecutor for the State of California, County of Los Angeles in the O.J. Simpson murder case along with Christopher Darden. With Teresa Carpenter, she authored a book, Without a Doubt, about the case, in a deal reported to be worth $4.2 million.[1] Clark was on leave from her job following Simpson's acquittal in 1995, and officially resigned in 1997, before the release of her book. Prior to the O.J. Simpson murder case, her most high-profile prosecution was in 1991, when she prosecuted Robert John Bardo for the murder of television star Rebecca Schaeffer.

She attended UCLA for her undergraduate degree, and then earned a J.D. at Southwestern University School of Law. She was admitted to the State Bar of California in 1979.

Clark is now a "special correspondent" for Entertainment Tonight. She provides coverage of high profile trials and also does occasional reporting from the red carpet at awards shows such as the Emmys. Her work on ET often mirrors the reporting style of many former prosecutors like Nancy Grace and appears to have an anti-defendant undertone.[citation needed]
