Ɗaya daga cikin yara tara, an haifi Edith Clarke ga lauya John Ridgely Clarke da Susan Dorsey Owings a ranar 10 ga Fabrairu, 1883, a Ellicott City, Maryland.  Bayan ta zama marayu tana shekara 12, wata ’yar’uwa da ta girma ta rene ta.  Ta yi amfani da gadonta wajen yin karatun lissafi da ilmin taurari a Kwalejin Vassar, inda ta kammala a 1908.[7]
