Born Candace June Clark in Norman, OK. Unusual, dynamic model-turned-actress who followed her film debut in John Huston's FAT CITY (1972) with a memorable, Oscar®-nominated performance in George Lucas's seminal coming-of-age film, AMERICAN GRAFFITI (1973). Clark's subsequent career, however, has not lived up to her fine work of the 1970s (THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH, 1976; WHEN YOU COMIN' BACK, RED RYDER?, 1979), or her country turns in TV films ("Amateur Night at the Dixie Bar and Grill", 1979; "Rodeo Girl", 1980).
Other notable credits include THE BIG SLEEP (1978), MORE AMERICAN GRAFFITI (1979), NOBODY'S PERFEKT (1981), Q (1982), BLUE THUNDER (1983), AMITYVILLE 3-D (1983), THE BLOB (1988), BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER (1992), RADIOLAND MURDERS (1994), CHERRY FALLS (2000), THE MONTH OF AUGUST (2001), THE BIG EMPTY (2005), and ZODIAC (2007).
