Frank King Biography

Frank King, popularly known as The Mental Health Comedian, is a Suicide Prevention and Postvention Public Speaker and Trainer who turned a lifelong battle with depression into a keynote worth spreading. After writing for the Tonight Show for 20-plus years and performing corporate comedy, Frank’s attention changed to mental health. His mission is to end the stigma surrounding mental health by sharing his insights with anyone and everyone who will listen in an effort to “start the conversation.” Frank attempted suicide many times and like many of us, depression and suicide runs in his family. He addresses his own trials and tribulations using humor as a tool people from all walks of life can relate to. He openly addresses topics considered a taboo in today’s society with his TED Talk A Matter of Life or Death. As a Motivational Public Speaker and Trainer who continually travels the world, Frank uses comedy and his personal life lessons to help break the ice and start engaging conversations amongst those struggling with mental and emotional stability. This act of faith helps those struggling to find a voice in which to express themselves. According to Frank, he believes that where there is humor, there is hope. And where there is laughter there is life… Nobody dies laughing. Originally from North Carolina, Frank now spends his off days in the Pacific Northwest. He travels the United States with his messages, hoping to end the stigma surrounding mental health, and influences the general public to start these conversations.
