Frank Garrison was a 43-year-old Telephone Technician from Odessa, New York when he competed on
Survivor: Africa. A conservative military veteran with traditional values, Frank was part of the older alliance on the Samburu tribe and often clashed with the younger members. After the tribe swap, Frank and Teresa Cooper made a deal with the Boran members to help throw a challenge and eliminate Silas, effectively switching their allegiance. Despite this strategic move, Frank was voted out on Day 30 as the third member of the jury once the Boran Alliance no longer needed him.
