==Early life and education==
Frakes was born in 1952 in [[Bellefonte, Pennsylvania]], to Doris J. (''née'' Yingling; 1926–2020) and James R. Frakes (1924–2002). Frakes's father was a professor of [[English literature]] and American studies at [[Lehigh University]] from 1958 to 2001, and was also a reviewer and critic for ''[[The New York Times Book Review]]''.<ref name= MC-James>{{cite news| url= https://www.mcall.com/2002/03/15/james-r-frakes/|title=James R.

Frakes attended [[Pennsylvania State University]], where he was a member of the [[Penn State Thespians|Thespians]], and graduated with a [[Bachelor of Fine Arts]] in Theater Arts in 1974. Although he had enjoyed performing in plays throughout junior high and high school, it was not until he entered Penn State that he began to take acting seriously. While he was working a summer job as an usher at the Festival of America Theatre, a director spotted him and suggested that he would make a great addition to his play's chorus. Transformed by the experience, Frakes immediately changed his major from psychology to theater.<ref name="Grunge">{{cite web|last=Wright|first=William J.|title=Star Trek Actors Before They Made It Big |url= https://www.grunge.com/647704/star-trek-actors-before-they-made-it-big/| website=Grunge.com| publisher=[[Static Media]]| access-date=25 March 2022|date=October 30, 2021}}</ref>

==Career==
=== Early work ===
For a time in the late 1970s, Frakes worked for [[Marvel Comics]], appearing in costume as [[Captain America]] at conventions and other promotional events as well as for special appearances; he credits the experience in helping to hone his skills on interacting with fans on the ''Star Trek'' convention circuit.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2006/07/04/comic-book-urban-legends-revealed-58/|publisher=[[Comics Should Be Good!]]|title=Comic Book Urban Legends Revealed #58|date=July 4, 2006|author=Brian Cronin|access-date=December 4, 2006|archive-date=February 14, 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080214222659/http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2006/07/04/comic-book-urban-legends-revealed-58/|url-status=dead}}</ref> After graduating from Harvard, Frakes moved to [[New York City]] and became a member of the [[Impossible Ragtime Theater]]. In that company, Frakes did his first off-Broadway acting in [[Eugene O'Neill]]'s ''[[The Hairy Ape]]'' directed by George Ferencz. His first Broadway appearance was in 1976 in the musical ''[[Shenandoah (musical)|Shenandoah]]''. Around the same time, he landed a role in the [[NBC]] [[soap opera]] ''[[The Doctors (1963 TV series)|The Doctors]]''.<ref name="TNGComp18"/> When his character, Vietnam veteran Tom Carroll, was dismissed from the show, Frakes, urged by his agent, moved to [[Los Angeles]], where he obtained guest spots in many of the top television series of the 1970s and 1980s, including ''[[The Waltons]]'', ''[[Eight Is Enough]]'', ''[[Hart to Hart]]'', ''[[Barnaby Jones]]'', ''[[The Dukes of Hazzard]]'', ''[[Matlock (1986 TV series)|Matlock]]'', ''[[Quincy, M.E.]]'', and ''[[Hill Street Blues]]''.

He played the part of [[Charles Lindbergh]] in a 1983 episode of ''[[Voyagers!]]'' titled "An Arrow Pointing East". In 1983, he had a role in the short-lived NBC prime time soap opera ''[[Bare Essence]]'' (which also starred his future wife Genie Francis), and a supporting role in the equally short-lived primetime soap ''[[Paper Dolls]]'' in 1984.<ref name="TNGComp18">{{cite book |last1=Nemecek |first1=Larry |editor1-first=Dave |editor1-last=Stern |title=The Star Trek The Next Generation Companion |year=1992 |publisher=[[Pocket Books]] |location=New York|isbn=0-671-79460-4 |page=[https://archive.org/details/startreknextgene00neme/page/18 18] |chapter=Rebirth |chapter-url-access=registration |chapter-url=https://archive.org/details/startreknextgene00neme/page/18 }}</ref> He also had recurring roles in ''[[Falcon Crest]]''<ref name="TNGComp18"/> and the [[miniseries]] ''[[North and South (TV miniseries)|North and South]]''. Frakes appeared in the 1986 miniseries ''[[Dream West]]''.

Frakes has appeared in ''[[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine]]'', ''[[Star Trek: Voyager]]'', ''[[Star Trek: Enterprise]]'', ''[[Star Trek: Picard]]'' and ''[[Star Trek: Lower Decks]]'', making him the only ''Star Trek'' regular to appear in six ''Star Trek'' series.

=== After ''Star Trek'' ===
[[File:Jonathan Frakes cropped1.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|Frakes in 2005]]
Branching out from the ''Star Trek'' franchise, Frakes directed the 2002 family film ''[[Clockstoppers]]''. However, his next film, 2004's ''[[Thunderbirds (2004 film)|Thunderbirds]]'', was a [[box-office bomb]], which he has said single-handedly almost destroyed what had been a successful directing career: "[My] name was taken off the lists ... I went from 60 to zero. It was a wake-up for me. I had been so positive, and so blessed, and so fortunate."<ref name=VultJai/> It was several years before Frakes was given another opportunity to direct for television, and ''Thunderbirds'' remains his final theatrical directorial credit.

Much of Frakes's acting work after ''Star Trek'' has been [[animation]] [[voice acting]], most notably voicing the recurring role of David Xanatos in the animated series ''[[Gargoyles (TV series)|Gargoyles]]'', and he provided the voice of his own head in a jar in the ''[[Futurama]]'' episode "[[Where No Fan Has Gone Before]]". He had a small, uncredited role in the 1994 film ''[[Camp Nowhere]]''. Frakes also voiced [[Finn the Human]]'s adult version in the episodes "[[Puhoy]]" and "[[Dungeon Train]]" on ''[[Adventure Time]]''.

Frakes was an executive producer for the WB series ''[[Roswell (TV series)|Roswell]]'', directed several episodes, and guest-starred in three episodes. His relationship with ''Star Trek'' is downplayed in the [[List of Roswell episodes#Season 3 (2001–02)|season 3 episode]] "Secrets and Lies", in which the alien character [[Max Evans (Roswell)|Max]] auditions for a guest role as an alien for ''Star Trek: Enterprise''.

Frakes appeared on the 1994 [[Phish]] album ''[[Hoist (album)|Hoist]]'', playing [[trombone]] on the track titled "Riker's Mailbox". Frakes would occasionally perform on the trombone during his tenure as Commander Riker, drawing on his college marching band experience. He was also a member of "The Sunspots", a vocal backup group of ''Star Trek'' cast members that appeared on [[Brent Spiner]]'s 1991 album ''[[Ol' Yellow Eyes Is Back]]''.

Frakes hosted ''The Paranormal Borderline'', a short-lived television series on [[UPN]], which dealt with the paranormal and mysterious happenings and creatures.<ref>{{cite news |last=Rosenberg |first=Howard |title='Borderline' Reveals Some Spooky Stuff |url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1996-03-12-ca-45910-story.html |access-date=28 May 2021 |work=[[Los Angeles Times]] |date=March 12, 1996}}</ref> In one episode, Frakes presented an interview of reporter Yolanda Gaskins with veteran astronaut [[Gordon Cooper]], where they discussed the possibility of aliens having visited Earth in the past.<ref>{{YouTube|dvPR8T1o3Dc}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.qtm.net/~geibdan/coop.html|title=UFO Folklore Center – Transcript of Interview|website=www.qtm.net|access-date=August 13, 2020|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090205120237/http://qtm.net/~geibdan/coop.html|archive-date=February 5, 2009}}</ref> He hosted seasons 2 through 6 of ''[[Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction]],'' which also dealt with the paranormal world.

Frakes and Francis appeared together in ''[[Lois & Clark]]'' in the episode "Don't Tug on Superman's Cape" as a creepily too-good-to-be-true couple. He narrated the [[History (U.S. TV channel)|History Channel]]'s ''That's Impossible''.

In addition to ''Roswell'', Frakes has directed episodes of ''[[Leverage (American TV series)|Leverage]]'',<ref name="Press_Kit">{{cite web|url=http://news.turner.com/press_kits_file.cfm?presskit_id=193&pfile_id=932|title=Leverage Season 3 Episode Synopses|publisher=Turner Network|author=Turner Network|format=[[Microsoft Word]] document|access-date=May 7, 2010|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140315053922/http://news.turner.com/press_kits_file.cfm?presskit_id=193&pfile_id=932|archive-date=March 15, 2014}}</ref> ''[[Castle (TV series)|Castle]]'', ''[[NCIS: Los Angeles]]'', ''[[Burn Notice]]'', ''[[Falling Skies]]'' and most recently Marvel's ''[[Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.]]'', ''[[Switched at Birth (TV series)|Switched at Birth]]'', ''[[Hit the Floor (TV series)|Hit the Floor]]'', ''[[The Librarians (2014 TV series)|The Librarians]]'', and ''[[The Orville]]''. So far, ''The Librarians'' has been one of the most positively rated and recommended work of his out of the previous, following the debut film ''The Librarian and the Quest for the Spear''.

Frakes works with the Workshops, the Waterfall Arts Center, and the Saltwater Film Society, all located in Maine, where he teaches classes on film direction. He has also previously taught directing and filmmaking courses at Rockport College, now called [[Maine Media College]].<ref name="encyclopedia"/><ref>{{cite news |last=Caldwell |first=Rob |title=When Jonathan Frakes, TNG's Riker, lived in Maine |url=https://www.newscentermaine.com/article/news/local/207/archives-jonathan-frakes-star-treks-riker-lives-in-maine/97-92a570a8-5d4e-4c0c-a8ca-6eabf32b43e7 |access-date=20 April 2021 |publisher=News Center Maine |date=2006}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal |last1=Barnett |first1=Amy Louise |title=Profile of Jonathan Frakes, 54 |journal=Portland Monthly |date=October 2006 |pages=30–31 |url=https://digitalcommons.portlandlibrary.com/news_portmonthly/1169/ |access-date=20 April 2021}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Jonathan Frakes Biography |url=https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000408/bio |website=IMDB |access-date=20 April 2021}}</ref> He and Francis owned a home furnishings store in [[Belfast, Maine]], called ''The Cherished Home'', which closed in August 2012 due to her being too busy with her acting to spend adequate time at the store.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=480447481983740&id=106099989418493|title=Log In or Sign Up to View|website=www.facebook.com}}</ref>

==Personal life==
Frakes and actress [[Debralee Scott]] met in the early '80s at an exercise class in Los Angeles. They married after about a year and lived in a 2-bedroom house in [[Sherman_Oaks,_Los_Angeles|Sherman Oaks, California]].<ref>[https://www.newspapers.com/article/philadelphia-daily-news-debralee-scott/86633403/ "Debralee Scott, 1984 interview"]</ref>

Frakes first met actress [[Genie Francis]] on the set of the television soap opera ''[[Bare Essence]]'', and again while filming the mini-series ''[[North and South (TV miniseries)|North and South]]''. They began dating in 1985, became engaged in 1986, and married on May 28, 1988. The couple have two children, Jameson Ivor Frakes (born August 20, 1994) and Elizabeth Frances Frakes (born May 30, 1997).{{Citation needed|date=February 2024}}

| Lifetime Achievement Award
| The Cast of ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]]''
| <ref name=TrekMovie />{{efn|"The Lifetime Achievement Award is usually presented to an individual for their contributions to [[Genre fiction|genre entertainment]]. Top luminaries like [[Stan Lee]] and [[Leonard Nimoy]], [[Spock|Mr. Spock]] himself, have received this top honor. It's not new, but we extended this award to cover the entire cast of ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]]'', due to its continued influence on the face of general television. It was originally doomed to failure since it was following in the footsteps of [[Star Trek: The Original Series|the original ''Star Trek'']], yet it carved its own identity, and its diverse cast was light years ahead of its time!" —[[Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Films]]<ref name=TrekMovie/>}}
