In recent years, the management of her estate has come under scrutiny, and is under investigation by the Manhattan district attorney's office.
Clark had refused visitors for years and didn't want anyone, including family, to know her whereabouts, according to her lawyer Wallace Bock. She was so fiercely private that she was registered at the hospital under a fake name and even made one of her lawyers speak to her through a door.
Clark married once, but later divorced and had no children. The beneficiaries of her will have not been revealed.
