He now works in the development of projects in the reality and scripted areas. His reputation for producing solid and marketable program ideas stemmed from his years on Talk TV where you "had to come up with a new show idea each week, 39 weeks a year!" Over time, his contacts and references in TV now run from top Execs at networks and premium cable to those in the film industry, and even on Broadway. He was nominated for his work on Donahue. As the world of 90's talk moved into trash talk, he stepped away and began producing in other areas. He went to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to work for Astro TV. When he returned, his scripted series Earthbound, a science fiction series was optioned by the animation house Film Roman (The Simpson, Futurama) as their first live-action series. He also had options on projects including a project called "The Cruisers" based on the 80's film "Eddie and the Cruisers" for which he optioned the book and the movie rights to both films. In 1999 he worked for the legendary Woody Fraser as the Co-Executive in Charge of Production for I-BASH, a $20 million, ten-hour live and Internet concert (with a two-hour edit for television broadcast) concert at the MGM Grand starring The Who, KISS, Lee Ann Rhymes, Faith Hill, Tony Bennett, Sugar Ray, Natalie Cole, and many other top performers. Frank spent the next years working for Termite Art, Creative Differences, Lions Gate TV, and Q Television. He produced shows for Discovery, ION/Paxnet, History Channel, Court TV, and Relativity Media. As the co-exec producer and co-owner of a one-hour talk pilot for Relativity/Bite Sized -- "Politics is a Drag" was born. It's a political talk show hosted by comedian/female impersonator Michael Airington. It may only have reached "shot the pilot" status, but it still lives on in social media, with impressive current numbers and analytics with such platforms as Facebook, Daily Motion, Instagram, and Twitter (no to TikTok). Frank worked under different hats as a Production Coordinator, Line Producer, and Producer of "The Weekly Show." This innovative comedy 'news magazine' improv show was seen on TV One and starred "Groundlings: The Black Experience." Most recently, he was a Consulting Producer for the 50th Anniversary of The Saturn Awards (covering Sci-Fi, Fantasy, and Horror).
