Biography
Unhappy as a plumber his wife seeing his despair noticed an ad in the papers looking for comedians. He began on Long Island in a small club called “The White House Inn” owned by Richard M Dixon who did cameo appearances as President Nixon. Frankie worked at his craft alongside other comedians like Eddie Murphy, Bob Nelson, Jackie Martling, and Rosie O’Donnell and after three years of training decided to hit the City clubs.
He auditioned for Rick Newman at Catch a Rising Star and was quickly accepted as a regular. Soon Frankie frequented The Comic Strip and The Improvisation along with T
... he Comedy Cellar. It was a tough grind for the young comic working all day as a plumber, driving 65 miles home to Port Jefferson to shower, have dinner, kiss his wife and kids then drive back to the City and wait sometimes till 2 am just to get a ten-minute spot.
One night another comic (Mike Little) noticed Frankie slumped against a wall, almost asleep. After hearing of his situation Mike offered Frankie to stay at his first avenue apartment weekdays until something came up.” If it wasn’t for Mike Little I might have not made it this far” Said Frankie to Dick Ebersol, just before going onto the stage of Saturday Night Live. Frankie was one of only a small hand-picked group of comedians asked to perform as a special guest.
This was Frankie’s first national spot on that show. The audience response was enormous to the point that Frankie had to install two answering machines in his office.
Later Frankie performed on The Cosby Show, The Joan Rivers Show, Cinemax, Showoffs with Malcolm Jamal Warner and many numerous comedy shows and specials. He has been compared to Charlie Chaplin, Jonathan Winters, and Red Skelton in some of his reviews.

“The laughter was so loud you wouldn’t hear a tractor-trailer falling through the roof” Bill Ervolino of The Daily News… Recently he has appeared in Catskills on Broadway and for Jimmy Fallon's Tonight Show...
