Marcia Clark began practicing law as a criminal defense attorney. She became a prosecutor in the L.A. District Attorney's Office in 1981, and spent ten years in the Special Trials Unit where she handled a number of high profile cases prior to the O.J. Simpson case, including the prosecution of stalker/murderer Robert Bardo.
In May of 1997, her book on the Simpson case, Without a Doubt, was published and quickly rose to #1 on the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, LA Times, and Publisher's Weekly bestsellers lists.
Marcia has published three novels which feature Los Angeles Special Trials prosecutor Rachel Knight: Guilt by Association, Guilt by Degrees, and Killer Ambition. TNT has optioned the books for a drama series. Marcia is attached as an executive producer.
"A real page-turner."--Mary Lignor, Suspense Magazine
"Clark handles sometimes painfully raw scenes with great
sensitivity and skillfully works in material about what makes a
mass murderer, as she ratchets up suspense to a deadly conclusion.
Her fourth legal thriller featuring Knight is another tour de
force."--Booklist (starred review)
"What could be worse than a Columbine- style school shooting?
Rachel Knight finds out in Clark's ticking time bomb of a thriller,
the fourth in her series featuring the L.A. deputy DA.... The
twisty plot and dynamic duo make for a suspenseful, if sobering,
page-turner."--Publishers Weekly
"With THE COMPETITION, Marcia Clark has upped the ante yet again,
reaching new creative heights. Though the subject matter is both
dark and disturbing, her sensitive handling of the material and the
informative nature of the narrative allows the book to transcend
traditional thriller fare. Pulse-pounding, poignant, and
provocative, this is a story that will engage your heart and your
mind. It's also proof beyond a reasonable doubt that fiction can
help us to understand reality."--John Valeri, Examiner
