Early life [edit]

Mary Theresa Eleanor Higgins was born on Christmas Eve 1927, although some sources mistakenly cite 1929 equally the year,^[4] the second child and only daughter of Nora C. (Durkin) and Luke Joseph Higgins.^[5] Her father was an Irish immigrant and her mother was American-born, besides of Irish descent.^[6] The United States census gives her historic period in Apr 1940 as 12, which indicates her yr of birth is 1927, as that was her age at her last birthday, the question asked by census enumerators.^[7]

She was built-in virtually a year and a one-half afterwards the birth of her older brother, Joseph. Her younger brother John, followed 3 years later.^[8] Fifty-fifty equally a pocket-sized child, she was interested in writing, composing her commencement poem at age seven and often crafting short plays for her friends to enact.^[9] She began keeping a journal when she was seven years old, noting in her start entry, "Zilch much happened today."^[ten]

The family lived off the earnings from their Irish pub and were fairly well-off, owning a habitation in the Bronx and a summer cottage on Long Isle Sound.^{[11] [12]} Although the Great Low began when Higgins Clark was still a baby, her family was initially not afflicted, and even insisted on feeding the men who knocked on their door looking for work.^[thirteen] By the fourth dimension Higgins Clark was ten, notwithstanding, the family began to experience financial trouble, every bit many of their customers were unable to pay the bar tabs they had run upwards.^[x] Higgins Clark's father was forced to lay off several employees and work longer hours, spending no more than a few hours at home each 24-hour interval. The family was thrown into further turmoil in 1939, when young Mary returned home from an early on Mass to discover that her father had died in his sleep.^{[half dozen]}

Nora Higgins, now a widow with three immature children to support, soon discovered that few employers were willing to hire a 52-yr-sometime woman who had not held a job in over xiv years.^[14] To pay the bills, Higgins Clark was forced to move out of her bedroom so that her mother could rent it out to paying boarders.^[xv] Six months subsequently their father's death, Higgins Clark's older blood brother cut his foot on a piece of metallic and contracted severe osteomyelitis. Higgins Clark and her mother prayed constantly for him, and their neighbors came en masse to give claret for the many transfusions the young boy needed. Despite the dire predictions of the doctors, Joseph Higgins survived. Higgins Clark credits his recovery to the power of their prayers.^[16]

When Higgins Clark graduated from Saint Francis Xavier Grammar School, she received a scholarship to keep her education at the Villa Maria Academy, a school run by the nuns of the Congregation de Notre Dame de Montreal.^[17] There, the principal and other teachers encouraged Higgins Clark to develop her writing, although they were somewhat less than pleased when she began spending her class time writing stories instead of paying attending to the lesson.^[9] At sixteen, Higgins Clark made her first endeavour at publishing her piece of work, sending an entry to True Confessions, which was rejected.^[18]

To assistance pay the bills, she worked as a switchboard operator at the Shelton Hotel, where she often listened in to the residents' conversations. In her memoir she recalls spending much time eavesdropping on Tennessee Williams merely complained that he never said anything interesting. On her days off, Higgins Clark would window shop, mentally choosing the clothes she would wear when she finally became a famous writer.^[nineteen]

Despite Higgins Clark'southward contribution to the family finances, the money her mother earned babysitting^[xx] was not enough, and the family lost their house and moved into a small three-room apartment. When Joseph graduated from high school in 1944, he immediately enlisted in the Navy, both to serve his country during war and to help his female parent pay her bills. Six months after his enlistment he contracted spinal meningitis and died.^[21] Although the family unit mourned Joseph's expiry deeply, as his dependent, Nora was guaranteed a life pension and no longer needed her daughter's assistance to pay the bills.^[22]

Early career [edit]

Soon after Joseph died, Higgins Clark graduated from high school and attended Wood Secretarial School on a fractional scholarship. After completing her coursework the following year, she accepted a job as the secretary to the head of the artistic section in the internal advertising division at Remington Rand.^[23] She presently enrolled in evening classes to acquire more than about advert and promotion. Her growing skills, as well every bit her natural dazzler, were noticed by her boss and others in the company, and her job was expanded to include writing catalog copy (alongside future novelist Joseph Heller) and to model for the company brochures with a then unknown Grace Kelly.^[24]

Although she enjoyed her task, Higgins Clark's imagination was sparked by an associate's casual comment, "God, it was beastly hot in Calcutta."^[25] Inspired to go a flying bellboy similar her associate, Higgins Clark underwent rigorous interviews to earn a position as a flying attendant (then known as stewardess) for Pan American Airlines, making v dollars fewer a calendar week than her secretarial job.^[26] Her supervisor at Remington Rand hosted a goodbye dinner for her, and Higgins Clark invited her neighbor, Warren Clark, whom she had admired for years, to exist her date. By the end of the evening Warren Clark had informed her that he thought she should work as a stewardess for a year, so they should be married the following Christmas. Higgins Clark accepted the somewhat unorthodox proposal.^[27]

For most of 1949, she worked the Pan Am international flights, traveling through Europe, Africa, and Asia. One of her flights became the concluding flight allowed into Czechoslovakia before the Fe Pall fell.^[four] On another of her flights, Higgins Clark escorted a four-year-old orphan down the steps of the airplane into the waiting arms of her adoptive mother, a scene that was heavily televised.^[28]

At the terminate of her yr of flying, on December 26, 1949, Higgins Clark happily gave up her career to marry Warren Clark.^[29] To occupy herself, she began taking writing courses at NYU^[eighteen] and, with some of her classmates, formed a writing workshop in which the members would critique each other's works-in-progress. The workshop, which persisted for almost forty years, met weekly. At each meeting two members would accept twenty minutes each to present their latest piece of work. The other members would so accept three minutes each to offer constructive criticism.^[30]

I of her professors at NYU told the class they should develop plot ideas by reading newspapers and asking themselves prompts such as, "Suppose...?" and "What if...?" She has said that she withal gets many of her ideas by utilizing said prompts, along with "Why?".^[31] For her first NYU writing consignment she used this method to expand her ain experiences into a short story called "Stowaway" about a stewardess who finds a stowaway from Czechoslovakia on her plane.^[32] Although her professor offered high praise for the story, Higgins Clark was continually frustrated in her attempts to discover a publisher. Finally, in 1956, later on six years and 40 rejections, Extension Mag agreed to purchase the story for $100.^[4]

While those 6 years were devoid of professional milestones, on a personal level Higgins Clark and her husband were very decorated. Their first child, Marilyn, was built-in nine months afterward their wedding ceremony, with Warren Jr. arriving xiii months later. A third child, David, was born two years after his brother. 2 months after Higgins Clark'due south short story sold, the fourth baby made her advent and was promptly named Ballad, after the heroine in her mother's story.^[33] After selling that start short story, Higgins Clark began regularly finding homes for her works. Through the author's workshop she met an agent, Patricia Schartle Myrer, who represented Higgins Clark for xx years until her retirement. They became such good friends that Higgins Clark named her fifth and last kid for her.^[34] While Warren worked and Higgins Clark wrote, they encouraged their children to find ways to earn money besides, with all five children somewhen taking professional person acting and modeling jobs. Young Patty served as a Gerber Baby, while David was featured in a national United Fashion ad. Higgins Clark herself filmed a tv set commercial for Fab laundry detergent. The commercial, which aired during the I Honey Lucy show, earned her enough money that she and Warren were able to take a trip to Hawaii.^[35]

In 1959, Warren Clark was diagnosed with astringent angina, and, although he concise his activities on his doctor's order, he suffered iii heart attacks within the side by side five years, each time returning from the hospital in poorer wellness. After the final heart attack in 1964, they felt that Warren would be unable to work once more, then Higgins Clark called a friend who wrote scripts for radio shows to see if there were any job openings. The 24-hour interval that she accustomed a job writing the radio segment "Portrait of a Patriot," Warren suffered a fatal eye attack. His female parent, who was visiting at the time, complanate at his bedside upon discovering that he was expressionless. In one night, Higgins Clark lost both her husband and her mother-in-law.^[36]

Higgins Clark'due south initial contract to be a radio scriptwriter obligated her to write 65 4-minute programs for the "Portrait of a Patriot" serial. Her piece of work was good enough that she was soon asked to write two other radio serial. This feel of fitting an unabridged sketch into 4 minutes taught Higgins Clark how to write cleanly and succinctly, traits that are incredibly of import to a suspense novel, which must accelerate the plot with every paragraph.^[37] Despite the security offered past her new job, money was tight in the offset as she strove to raise five children aged five to thirteen alone. For their offset Christmas without Warren, Higgins Clark'south just gifts to her children were personalized poems describing the things she wished she could take purchased for them.^[38]

By the tardily 1960s, the curt story market had collapsed. The Saturday Evening Post, which in 1960 named Higgins Clark'due south short story "Dazzler Contest at Buckingham" one of their ten best of the year, was in serious financial straits and had decided to stop publishing fiction, and many of the popular women's magazines were also dropping or cut dorsum on fiction, focusing on self-assistance manufactures instead.^[39] Considering her short stories were no longer able to find a publisher, Higgins Clark's amanuensis suggested that she try writing a full-length novel.^[18] Using her inquiry and experience with the Portraits of a Patriot serial, Higgins Clark spent the next three years writing a fictionalized account of the relationship betwixt George and Martha Washington, Aspire to the Heavens. It is about George Washington and the love for his house.^[xx] Although it was sold for simply a small advance, its acceptance gave Higgins Clark confidence that she could indeed finish a full-length book and discover a publisher.^[9] The novel "was remaindered equally it came off the press,"^[4] and, to make matters worse, four months afterwards the publication of the novel, Mary'due south female parent, Nora, died.^[40]

To ensure that her children would non have to struggle financially, Higgins Clark was determined that they should take good educations. To provide a practiced example she entered Fordham University at Lincoln Center in 1971, graduating summa cum laude in 1979, with a BA in philosophy.^[4] Her children followed her example. The two eldest, Marilyn and Warren, take become judges, and Patty works at the Mercantile Exchange in New York City. David is the president and CEO of Talk Marketing Enterprises, Inc, and Ballad has authored many pop suspense novels.^[20]

During this time Higgins Clark became increasingly frustrated with her employer, and, although two of her children were partially dependent on her for their college tuition, she quit her job and joined two of her former colleagues in forming their own visitor to write and market radio scripts. To scrape upwards the $5000 she needed to commencement the business, Higgins Clark was forced to pawn her engagement ring, and, for the viii months information technology took the company to go profitable, she did not receive a salary, farther straining the family finances.^[41]
