Most recently, Clark’s music is heard in the original song she composed for the Desperate Housewives soundtrack, recorded by LeAnn Rimes. She also produced Dionne Warwick’s first holiday CD, “My Favorite Time of the Year,” as well as “Church: Songs of Soul & Inspiration” featuring Maya Angelou, Toni Morrison and top African-American female artists such as Patti LaBelle and Chaka Khan.
