Edward Clark was born and raised in Minneapolis, Minnesota.[1] Educated in California, he attended the former Our Lady Queen of Angels Seminary in Mission Hills, Los Angeles, and St. John's Seminary in Camarillo.[2]
Clark was ordained to the priesthood by Archbishop Timothy Manning on May 9, 1972,[1] and then served in pastoral assignments in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. From 1985 to 1988, he studied at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome, where he earned a doctorate in theology.[2] He served as Coordinator of Religious Instruction for Secondary Schools from 1988 to 1990, and was named President of St. John's Seminary College in 1994.[2]
On January 16, 2001, Clark was appointed Auxiliary Bishop of Los Angeles and Titular Bishop of Garðar (in Greenland) by Pope John Paul II. He received his episcopal consecration on the following March 25 from Cardinal Roger Mahony, with Archbishops William Levada and Justin Rigali serving as co-consecrators.[1] As an auxiliary bishop, he serves as the Regional Bishop for Our Lady of the Angels Pastoral Region.
Within the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, Clark has served as the Catholic Co-Chairman of the Anglican–Roman Catholic Theological Consultation and as a member of the Committee on Doctrine, the Committee on African American Catholics, and the Committee on Interfaith Activities.[3] Within the California Conference of Catholic Bishops, Clark serves as chair of the Committee on Education, chair of the task force on Native American Historic Concerns, co-chair of the Serra Committee, and member of the Strategic Concerns Conmmittee.
