Frankie Faison: Far too often have I been accepted or rejected for work because of the color of my skin. I have never thought of myself as a black actor, I have always thought of myself as an actor first, black second. In the same way I think of myself as a human being who happens to be black.
Frankie Faison: As an actor I live a life of ups and downs, highs and lows, feast or famine. But when you remember who you are and where you came from, you are prepared to live in dignity as you experience life's ups and downs.
