About Frank Somerville Frank Somerville is a five-time Emmy award winning former main anchor for KTVU in the Bay Area. During the course of his career he witnessed two executions at San Quentin Prison, watched an autopsy, flew with the Blue Angels, and was embedded with the Alameda County Sheriff’s SWAT Team during a 48-hour non-stop competition, the first and only time they allowed a reporter to cover Urban Shield from the inside. However, later in his career he suffered from severe mental health issues due to the stories he covered and witnessed firsthand. He was afraid to admit that he was suffering and made the horrible choice to drink to ease the pain. Since he stopped on June 6, 2023, his life has taken a dramatic turn for the better. Frank grew up in Berkeley, where he was always taught to question authority and to not be afraid to go left even if everyone else is going right. He has two beautiful daughters one of whom happens to be adopted and black and as a result, sees the world completely different now. He’s in the gym 6 times a week now, plays hockey, has trained in Krav Maga, and proud of the fact that he hasn’t eaten meat, fish, or poultry since the age of 12 as he doesn’t believe in killing animals. He loves the Sharks, the 49ers, the Cal Bears and Formula 1 racing. MORE FROM CAMERON N.
