Eugene V. Clark
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Eugene V. Clark (c. 1926 –) is a Catholic priest of the Archdiocese of New York and appointed Monsignor. He resigned on August 11, 2005 as rector of St. Patrick's Cathedral in response to allegations of adultery with his secretary Laura DiFillpo. He denied the allegations. DiFillipo's husband is seeking to divorce her and made video and photographs he collected widely available to news media.
Clark had previously been a high school teacher at Cardinal Spellman High School in the Bronx, New York. In 1999 and 2000 he taped for the Catholic Eternal Word Television Network a series of programs titled Relationships which made Clark better known outside of the Archdiocese of New York. At the time the scandal became public, EWTN stopped airing the reruns.
