Marie Clark is a name carried at position 23 of the Fill 500 “Comedians” bucket in the 747 Supply Ledger, inside the bucket's cluster of Chicago media and culture figures. This record is staged PROVISIONAL because the identification is UNRESOLVED. The only professional candidate surfaced in this packet's research leads strategy, partnerships, and communications at the New Voices Foundation — which supports more than 25,000 women-of-color entrepreneurs — and was a 2023 Black Women in Food honoree; but no source consulted documents a Chicago tie for her, so the identification is NOT asserted and none of her biography is imported into this record. A different-spelling namesake, the Ohio labor leader Marie Clarke (1915–2020), is excluded on spelling and geography. No biographical claim is asserted for Marie Clark anywhere in this record, and no relationship is staged. Resolution requires the founder list's original source or a documented Chicago connection for a specific Marie Clark; until then the name is held exactly as the ledger carries it.

Notes

Staged 2026-10-16 under CTL-GOV-006 (Fill 500 Lists Wave 4, Tier 1 — 747 Program). Gate A (2026-10-16): no Marie Clark entity in the live graph at 3,409 entities (exact/normalized/alias + token containment); ID CTL-E-5717 free. Supply: 747 Supply Ledger, Fill 500 Comedians gap #23. TIER: Provisional — identification unresolved; the single candidate found carries no documented Chicago connection, so GOV-004 forbids asserting her. Vital status: UNKNOWN (not asserted).

No relationships staged.
