Profile: Rick Clark

Clark, a well-known Nashville producer, multi-instrumentalist, music supervisor and writer, was born and raised in Memphis — a city he says is utterly baked into him at a cellular level. It was in Memphis where he picked up his first instrument, bought his first dixieland jazz records, and played his first gig. Since then, Clark has gone on to write for numerous national publications – including Billboard and Rolling Stone – produce the first seven volumes of the award-winning Oxford American Magazine music CDs, supervise the music for numerous film and TV projects, and record and release music under his own name.Today's episode was produced by Mary Mancini.GUEST Rick Clark, Music Supervisor, Producer, Writer, and Creative Guy
