- Clark (born April 28, 1944) is the founder and retired director of Shock Incarceration and the Willard Drug Treatment Campus (WDTC) for the New York State Department of Correctional Services (NYS DOCS).Shock Incarceration is an innovative, six-month program for non-violent offenders serving their first term of state incarceration and is the leading program of its type in the world.

- Shock is a total institutional program, meaning everyone who is incarcerated or works in the facilities receives specialized training in accelerated learning techniques.
- It is estimated that the program has saved the taxpayers of New York State more than $1.3 billion since its inception, due to the program's public safety record, early release options and the participants' low rate of recidivism.
- As of 2009, 39,000 inmates entered the program.
- Notable graduates include rapper 50 Cent, who attended the Monterey Shock Incarceration Correctional Facility in Beaver Dams, NY.
