Frank Damiani

After graduating from the U of A in 1973, with a degree in Drama Education, I soon discovered that teaching wasn't what I wanted to do. So I worked in construction for a few years, before returning to the stage.

I worked in theater for the next ten years or so, doing shows at dinner theaters, working in a repertory company, and even at the old Playbox Theater in Traildust Town, which was where I met my wonderful wife Bobbi, whom I married in 1975. We have no children.

In 1981 we moved to Portland, Oregon, where we lived for the next 20 years. In that time I did some more theater, before changing my focus in the mid 1980's to film and video work. I did well at this, making nearly three dozen TV commercials, fifty radio ads, and dozens of print ads in the next fifteen years. I got both my SAG and AFTRA cards in the mid 80's, and had one of my more interesting jobs in 1988, when I spent a few hours on the set with Burt Reynolds, while doing a bit in the film, "Breaking In".

In 2001 Bobbi and I moved back to Tucson, and since our return I've concentrated on being a writer.

We both love to travel, and together we've visited Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Great Britain, France, Germany, The Netherlands, and Belgium. Last year we made a transatlantic crossing on the Queen Mary 2, which was great. We plan to travel more in the future.
