| BRITISH COLUMBIA ARTISTS |
Edith's older sister Margaret Hilda Carter was also an artist, and they graduated together from the Vancouver School of Decorative and Applied Arts, receiving their diplomas in the school's fourth graduating class in 1932.
In the early 1940s Carter was hired as an Instructor at the Winnipeg School of Art, a position she held until after the war. At that point, the School's Board of Directors replaced all of the female teachers with male teachers, who were returning from active service. Carter returned to Vancouver.
In 1951 the Vancouver City directory listed her and her sister Margaret as both living at 2296 East 6th Avenue. Edith also had a studio in the Wilson Block at 441 Seymour Street in 1951. In 1954 and 1955 she was listed as a city school teacher, at the same residence.
She showed worked with the B.C. Society of Fine Arts in 1957, 1958, 1960, and 1962.
In 1977 Clark was living at 201 - 950 Gilford Street in Vancouver.
Artist and educator Kristin Krimmel (q.v.) knew Carter personally, and said that Carter had been a teacher at Point Grey High School. She further advised that during the Second World War, Carter was assistant director to the Winnipeg School of Art (succeeded by Joe Plaskett), and then taught art in the Vancouver School Board system. Carter had a studio in the Dominion Building on Hastings Street, with a view across Victory Square to the Sun Building.
Carter died in Vancouver in 1991. She had been living at 1816 Haro Street in the West End of Vancouver.
