Frank was considered a "furniture actor" on stage. While on stage he
was so often drunk that he had to lean on or hold onto furniture to
keep from falling down. Known through the country for his stage work,
he was ranked as one of the foremost stage artists prior to moving to
Hollywood. Keenan's first wife of forty-four years, was watching him
perform on stage when she suffered a stroke and died a few minutes
later.
