Marc Huestis (born December 26, 1954) is an award-winning filmmaker, camp impresario and social activist. He is best known for his motion picture Sex Is… and his in-person tributes/benefit events feting celebrities from Hollywood’s Golden Age and cult personas at San Francisco’s Castro Theatre.

Huestis was born in Long Island, New York. His mother was a dancer and his father was a video editor at NBC, where he cut the hit TV show Hullabaloo. He studied theater at Binghamton University from 1972 to 1974. Afterwards, Huestis took the famed Green Tortoise to San Francisco & there hooked up with the colorful theatre group the Angels of Light. His interest soon veered to film, taking classes at City College of San Francisco. While getting his super 8 films developed at Harvey Milk’s Castro Camera store, he met a group of fellow fledgeling filmmakers. Together with Daniel Nicoletta, Ric Mears and others, Huestis founded the San Francisco Gay Film Festival, now the oldest and largest of its ilk. In 2001, in honor of the 25th Anniversary of the Festival, Huestis and the founding members were given the Frameline Film Festival Award.

In 1994, along with producer Lawrence Helman, Huestis began to present celebrity tributes at San Francisco’s majestic Castro Theatre. The first, The Poseidon Event-ure featuring star Carol Lynley, was a success, selling out the 1400 seat venue. Soon these events drew national attention, where in an article entitled “Celebration of Camp”, Variety reporter Dennis Harvey commented ” it took local entrepreneur Marc Huestis to perfect a meld of screen and live ultrakitsch.”
