Clark Brian Howard (born June 20, 1955) is an American author and radio/podcast host, focused primarily on personal finance, consumer protection, and related topics.

His parents, Bernard and Joy Garson Howard, were prominent members of Atlanta's Jewish community.

Howard attended The Westminster Schools in Atlanta before graduating from the American University in 1976 with a Bachelor of Arts in Urban Government.

During the Carter administration, Clark established his travel agency, which grew into a successful enterprise with multiple branches.

He attended monthly training workshops around the state as part of his service, and performed medical evacuation work in New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina.

From 2012 to 2013, Howard was a co-host of HLN's Evening Express, a daily news and lifestyle roundup that aired weeknights.

The format was similar to Howard's radio show, in that the host gives advice to callers and provides tips on saving money.

Howard continues to regularly appear on WSB-TV in Atlanta, which is occasionally broadcast by other Cox Television stations nationwide.

With help from his listeners, Howard began teaming up with Habitat for Humanity in 1996 to build houses around the Atlanta area.

In 2001, Howard created the WSB Radio Care-A-Thon which raises funds each July for the AFLAC Cancer and Blood Disorders Center at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta.
