Frankie Quiñones is a stand-up comedian, actor, and creator, known for his character work. Frankie stars in HULU's critically claimed, THIS FOOL, for which he was nominated for Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series at the Independent Spirit Awards. Frankie also recently wrapped a pilot for his own sketch show at Hulu entitled GET FRANKIE. 

Frankie also recurs on FX's WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS and animated series FIRED ON MARS and VICTOR & VALENTINO, both for HBO MAX. Other acting credits include MR MAYOR, FELIZ NAVIDAD, THE DRESS UP GANG, PAPI CHULO, and the upcoming WALKING DEAD Spin off, to name a few. 

Entertainment Weekly calls Frankie’s performance in THIS FOOL the best comedic performance of 2022. 

My favorite comedic performance this year was Frankie Quiñones as ex-con Luis, the brash heart and baffled soul of this sneaky-smart, laugh-out-loud series. Away for eight years, Luis seems unfrozen from longer ago, with nostalgia for his '90s gang-banging days and a penchant for quoting Austin Powers at the most problematic times. [ew.com] 

Frankie's podcast, THE FRANKIE QUINONES SHOW, is produced by Will Ferrell's Big Money Players and IHeartmedia, available on all podcast networks.

This documentary highlights the extraordinary life of Fred Ross, Sr. and the lasting impact of his organizing work. From the real-life struggles that inspired John Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath, to the shameful internment of Japanese Americans during World War II, and the founding of the CSO and farmworker unionization efforts in Delano and beyond, Ross’s story is one of resilience and justice. He mentored Cesar Chavez, Dolores Huerta, and thousands of organizers who carried forward the United Farm Workers movement.
