Paul Martin will be our Emcee at the Fair again this year. Look for Paul on the main stage throughout the day announcing acts and activities, giving away prizes and awards, as well as other announcements.

Paul Martin graduated from the University of Santa Clara (Cum Laude). He then served as a Captain in the U.S. Army. As an assistant director, Paul has worked in the film industry for over twenty years, with film credits that include Dude Where's My Car and Hellraiser III. Paul then founded Vineyard Productions, producing and directing various projects, and is honored with the title Chair Emeritus of the San Francisco Coordinating Committee of the Directors Guild of America.

For over fifteen years, Paul has been a docent at the Jack London State Historic Park where he has produced numerous promotional videos and the audio tour for the park.
