He attended the Hayes Basic and the Hayes All-Age School, where he developed his formal education. His favourite book was the Bible, and he regularly read the Gleaner Newspaper, which his father bought regularly. From an early age, he had the gift of writing, and his friends and classmates encouraged him to develop his literary skills to the best of his ability.
After leaving the ninth grade, he went to live with his mother in the district of Old Paisley, about one mile out of the town of May Pen. There he did a course in electrical welding, from which he earned a living. From there he got involved in community work, which led him to become involved in politics; there he met James Messam and Joseph Gunter, which led to the formation of “Khaki Production,” a performance group involved in speech and drama. Frank gained confidence and developed his performance skills to a high degree and took part in debating competitions. This led him to do a course at the Vernon Arnett School of Political Education at the Old Harbour High School in St Catherine. He later joined the correctional services and is a union representative with the (UAWU).
He then began to take his writing and performing seriously, hence he won several gold and silver medals in the Jamaica Cultural Development Commission Performing Arts Competitions. He has performed in schools across Jamaica and at different local and national functions; thus out of that journey he is honoured to share this experience.
