Danny Bennett's Bio
Clark Contractors was founded in 2009 as a partnership between William Clark, Shannon Earls, and Danny Bennett. After a long and successful career, Danny retired at the end of December 2021. However, his numerous contributions to Clark Contractors and the construction industry will be valued and remembered. Throughout Danny’s 43-year career, he was involved with constructing some of the most noteworthy buildings in the region, including Murphy USA Headquarters in El Dorado, Arkansas Heart Hospital Encore Medical Center in Bryant, and the University of Arkansas Founders Hall in Fayetteville. Danny’s leadership has played a profound and influential role in shaping our company, culture, and people.
