Шаблон:More footnotes needed Clarence Profit (June 26, 1912 – October 22, 1944)[1] was a jazz pianist and composer associated with swing.

Profit was born in New York, United States.[1] He came from a musical family and began studying piano at the age of three, and he led a ten-piece band in New York City in his teens.[1] A visit to his grandparents in Antigua resulted in his staying in the Caribbean for five years.[1] He also led a group in Bermuda. He returned to the US and led his own trio, which was noted as "a format which best suited his powerful stride piano style".[1] He co-composed "Lullaby In Rhythm" with Edgar Sampson.[2] He was respected in his era, but after his early death fell into obscurity.

He died in New York in October 1944, at the age of 32.[1]
