His other credits include co-executive producer of Bill Condon's Academy Award-winner ''Gods and Monsters''; associate producer of Brian De Palma's ''Home Movies''; and historical consultant on the Tony Award-winner ''Liza's at the Palace''. Irvin also wrote the biography ''Kay Thompson: From Funny Face to Eloise'' (Simon & Schuster). Between projects, Irvin teaches graduate courses on directing at the University of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts.
==Career==
Sam Irvin's grandfather, Warren Irvin, was the district manager for Wilby-Kincey Theaters, a chain of cinemas throughout the southeastern United States. His father, Sam Irvin Sr., co-owned Irvin-Fuller Theaters, a competing chain with cinemas in both North and South Carolina. Irvin worked in these theaters in his youth. Later, during his college years, he worked for Irvin-Fuller Theaters as its Advertising and Publicity Manager.
As a teenager, Irvin edited and published four annual issues of ''Bizarre'' (1972–1975), a fanzine on fantasy, horror and science fiction films, for which he twice traveled to England to conduct in-person interviews.〔''Bizarre''. Richard Klemensen's ''Little Shoppe of Horrors'', issue number 27, October 2011.〕
In 1978, Irvin graduated from the University of South Carolina with a Bachelor of Arts in Media Arts. While attending the university, he was the film critic for ''The Gamecock'', the campus newspaper, and won a student film award for his thesis short film. He was also chairman of the University of South Carolina Film Committee that ran a year-round cinema program at the campus theater.
During his summer break in 1977, Irvin interned at the Chicago shooting location for Brian De Palma’s ''The Fury''. He worked on the feature as a production assistant, an extra, and also wrote a journal on the making of the movie that was published in ''Cinefantastique'' magazine, Vol. 7, No. 2, 1978. Irvin also conducted an exclusive interview with Amy Irving in which, for the first time anywhere, she discussed her relationship with Steven Spielberg; it was published in ''Cinefantastique'', Vol 6, No. 4 / Vol. 7, No. 1, 1978.
In 2013, Irvin was extensively interviewed on camera by filmmaker Robert Fischer about his experiences on the set of ''The Fury'' for ''The Fury: A Location Journal'', a 50-minute bonus feature that is included on the 2013 Blu-ray DVD release of ''The Fury'' distributed by Arrow Films in the U.K. and Ireland and by Carlotta Films in France. In its October 26, 2013 issue, ''Telegraph Magazine'' (the weekly supplement to London's popular daily newspaper ''The Telegraph'') ran a full-page story and photo of Irvin reminiscing about his time on the set of ''The Fury''.
After graduating from the University of South Carolina in May 1978, Irvin worked as the Associate Producer and Production Manager on Brian De Palma's ''Home Movies''. Then, Irvin worked as De Palma's assistant on ''Dressed to Kill'' starring Michael Caine, Angie Dickinson, Nancy Allen and Keith Gordon.
He also worked with De Palma on several projects in development, including ''Blow Out''.
Irvin gave up his position as De Palma's assistant to produce ''The First Time'', a coming-of-age comedy co-written by William Finley, for which De Palma served as a credited Creative Consultant. Released by New Line Cinema, the film starred Tim Choate, Wendie Jo Sperber, Wallace Shawn, Cathryn Damon and Jane Badler.
During the 1980s, Irvin served as Vice President of Marketing for three film distributors: United Artists Classics, Spectrafilm, and Vestron. During this period, Irvin won ''Hollywood Reporter'' Key Art Awards for designing the movie posters for François Truffaut’s ''Confidentially Yours'' and Paul Verhoeven’s ''The Fourth Man''. He also helped spearhead the record-breaking year-long run of Jean-Jacques Beineix's ''Diva'' in New York City.
Irvin's first directorial effort, which he also wrote and produced, was the 1985 dark comedy short ''Double Negative'', which starred Bill Randolph, Justin Henry , Wayne Knight, Dori Legg, and William Finley.〔 It premiered as an official selection at the Sundance Film Festival and subsequently played theatrically in New York and Los Angeles as a warm-up for various feature films. It was nominated for a Gold Hugo Award for Best Short Film at the 1985 Chicago International Film Festival. Janet Maslin of ''The New York Times'' wrote that it was "an exceptionally promising first effort."〔 ''Double Negative'' is included as an extra bonus feature on the 2013 Blu-ray DVD release of Brian DePalma's ''The Fury'' distributed by Arrow Films in the U.K. and Ireland and by Carlotta Films in France.

Irvin's first book, ''Kay Thompson: From Funny Face to Eloise'', was published by Simon & Schuster (November 2010) and was honored by Kirkus Reviews and The Theatre Library Association Awards as one of the "Best Biographies of 2010." Acclaimed by columnist Liz Smith as "a smashing work," and by entertainer Michael Feinstein as "one of the best showbiz bios I've ever read." This comprehensive biography covers the life and career of the legendary singer-actress-composer-arranger-author-fashionista Kay Thompson. She was the mentor/best friend of Judy Garland, the vocal guru to Frank Sinatra and Lena Horne, the mentor and longtime lover of Andy Williams, and the godmother/Svengali to Liza Minnelli (who recreated Thompson's nightclub act in the 2009 Tony Award-winning event ''Liza's at the Palace'').
In connection with his research on the life of Thompson, Irvin served as a historical consultant on the Tony Award-winning Broadway event ''Liza's at the Palace''. He produced and annotated the 2009 3-CD box set compilation ''Think Pink! A Kay Thompson Party'' (Sepia Records) and he appeared in and consulted on Paramount Home Entertainment's documentary ''Kay Thompson: Think Pink!''
