Marcia Clark

Marcia Clark has been a practicing criminal attorney since 1979 and served as prosecutor in the Los Angeles DA’s office for 10 years. There, she served as a prosecutor for the trials of Robert Bardo, convicted of killing actress Rebecca Schaeffer, and, most notably, O.J. Simpson, tried for the murders of his ex-wife Nicole and Ron Goldman. Marcia wrote a New York Times best-selling book on the Simpson case titled “Without a Doubt” which was re-released as an e-book, coinciding with the debut of the hit FX series “American Crime Story: The People vs. O.J. Simpson.” For nearly a decade, Clark has been a prolific novelist authoring four legal thrillers featuring Rachel Knight, a driven and gritty city prosecutor. On May 1st, Clark flips to writing from the perspective of a defense attorney in the launching of her fifth novel “Blood Defense,” the first in a new series featuring an ambitious and hard-charging Los Angeles criminal defense attorney named Samantha Brinkman. Marcia is a California native and received her J.D. from Southwestern University School of Law.
