Victoria Clark is a two-time Tony Award-winning actress, Grammy nominee, and director celebrated for her work on Broadway, film, television and the concert stage.

A Dallas native, she has appeared in fourteen Broadway productions and earned Tony Awards for Best Performance by a Leading Actress in a Musical for creating roles in the original musicals The Light in the Piazza and Kimberly Akimbo. She was nominated three additional times for the Tony Award for Sister Act, Gigi, and Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella. Most recently, Clark starred in the play Punch by James Graham at Manhattan Theater Club’s Friedman Theater.

Film and Television credits include The Gilded Age, Elsbeth, Almost Family, The Blacklist, Homeland, 911-Nashville, Pose, The Happening, Cradle Will Rock, and Hallmark’s One Royal Holiday, among others. Clark has had the honor of performing at Carnegie Hall several times, singing Ma Joad in the opera The Grapes of Wrath by Ricky Ian Gordon, and Katisha in the Master Voices production of Gilbert and Sullivan’s The Mikado, directed and conducted by Ted Sperling. Solo albums: Fifteen Seconds of Grace, and December Songs by Maury Yeston, re-imagined for voice and full orchestra.

In addition to her acclaimed performing career, Clark is a director (Love Life for New York City Center’s Encores! series, The Dance of Death for Classic Stage Company) and avid educator, serving as Artist-in-Residence at both Duke University and Pace University (twice!) She is a frequent guest lecturer at her alma mater Yale University and has taught Master Classes at universities and conservatories worldwide. She is currently at work re-writing her one-woman show for the 245th time and will hopefully get it up sometime before she dies. Clark discovered the Alexander Technique in 2005 and has been a curious and avid student ever since. Her teachers Beret Arcaya and Tom Vasiliades have contributed greatly to her understanding and enjoyment of the Technique!

Clark currently resides in New York City with her husband Tom Reidy and their two Golden Retrievers.
