==Biography==
She was born Clara Gerlich in Decoria Township, Blue Earth County, Minnesota. She received her education from the Mankato State Normal School and the Cosmopolitan School of Music in Chicago.〔Grattan, p. 12〕 She married physician John Milton Edwards before finishing her degree, and the couple moved to Vienna, where she continued musical studies and had a daughter. In Europe she prepared for a career as a singer, and gave concerts in both the United States and Europe〔Grattan, p. 12〕 before moving to New York City in 1914. Two years later her husband died, leaving her a single mother in New York city with no steady income.
Out of financial necessity, Edwards began her career as a composer and songwriter in the 1920s,〔Villamil, p. 153〕 joining the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) in 1925. She toured in Vaudeville at about the same time, and organized the Chautauqua Concert Company in 1934.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Clara Edwards' Life )〕 She often collaborated with Jack Lawrence, but also wrote many of the lyrics to her own songs.
