Fraser Clarke Heston (born February 12, 1955 in Los Angeles, California) is an American film director, film producer, screenwriter and actor. The son of actors Charlton Heston and Lydia Clarke, Fraser Clarke Heston was born in Los Angeles, California.

Fraser Heston's filmography includes Alaska and the 1990 version of Treasure Island which cast his father as Long John Silver. As a child, he also appeared as the infant Moses (his father played the grown Moses) in the Cecil B. DeMille epic The Ten Commandments.

While in the process of writing Wind River, a romantic adventure novel about 19th-century fur trappers, Fraser was convinced by producer Martin Shafer to turn the story into a film script. Discovering that film-writing came naturally for him, 22-year-old Fraser wrote his first screenplay, The Mountain Men, for Columbia Pictures, which became the feature film.
