  • In Great Kills, Staten Island, New York, Roy Clark was raised and he also lived in southeast Washington, D.C. When he was in his youth, his father worked at the Navy Yard in Washington.

  • A number of instrumental albums have also been released, including “Urban, Suburban” (1968), “A Pair of Fives (Banjos, That Is)” (1975), and “Banjo Bandits” (1978), which also increased its net worth.
