Frank Silva

Born in Sacramento, California, Silva graduated from San Francisco State University with a degree in lighting design, and worked as a prop master and set decorator on several of David Lynch's films, including Dune and Wild at Heart. Silva appeared occasionally as Bob for the remainder of the Twin Peaks series and in the 1992 movie Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me. His first major appearance was in the International Version of the Twin Peaks pilot, which contained a standalone ending that resolved the mystery of the series and incorporated the accidental footage. He also appeared in the Anthrax video "Only". == Death ==

After Twin Peaks, Silva went through a period of depression because he couldn't find any acting roles, and eventually became homeless for a period of time before moving in with his mother. He was ultimately placed in a furnished apartment, which was subsidized by the state of Washington. On September 13, 1995, Silva died from AIDS-related complications at the age of 44. The second episode of the revived Twin Peaks was dedicated to Silva, and he appeared throughout the revival as Bob through use of archival footage. == Filmography ==
