Alternatives pathways after law school are not always highlighted to law students or young lawyers. This week’s guest has such an expansive imagination that has led her down an incredible journey through arts and the law.
Clark L. Edmond (she/her/hers) is from Atlanta, GA, and lives between London and New York. After receiving her J.D. from University of Pennsylvania Law School and a Master’s in Art Business from Sotheby’s Institute of Art-London in 2019, she decided to launch __crate with the goal of introducing new audiences to diverse perspectives through art and creating opportunities for historically underrepresented artists. In the past, she has worked at Jack Shainman Gallery in NYC and the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. She is co-founder of Black@Sotheby's, the Black student and alumni group at Sotheby's Institute of Art. She is also a member of the New Art Dealers Alliance. In addition to founding __crate, she specializes in the intersection of art, business, intellectual property, and national economic development.
