Marcia Davenport (June 9, 1903 – January 16, 1996) was an American author and music critic. ==Biography== Marcia Davenport was born Marcia Glick in New York City on June 9, 1903, the daughter of Bernard Glick and the opera singer Alma Gluck, and she became the stepdaughter of violinist Efrem Zimbalist when Alma Gluck remarried. Davenport traveled extensively with her parents and was educated intermittently at the Friends School in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and the Shipley School in Bryn Mawr. She began at Wellesley College but eloped to Pittsburgh in April 1923 and married Frank D. Clarke. Eventually she earned her B.A. at the University of Grenoble. Her first child, Patricia Delmas Clarke, was born in 1924, but in 1925 she divorced Clarke. She took an advertising copywriting job to support herself and her daughter. In 1928 she began her writing career on the editorial staff of ''The New Yorker'', where she worked until 1931. On May 13, 1929, she married Russell Davenport, who soon after became editor of ''Fortune''. Davenport's second daughter was born in 1934. That same year she began as the music critic of ''Stage'' magazine. Davenport had close ties through her mother and stepfather to the classical music world and particularly to the opera world of Europe and America in the first half of the 20th century. She was first celebrated as a writer for her first book, ''Mozart,'' the first published American biography of composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Her marriage to Russell Davenport ended in 1944.
