Born in Brooklyn, raised in Los Angeles, Mark Frost began writing at 10, and writing professionally at 15. When his family moved to Minneapolis he worked and studied at the Guthrie Theater during high school, then studied acting, directing, and playwriting at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh.
After college he moved back to Los Angeles and began his career in television, writing episodes of The Six Million Dollar Man. From 1982 to 1985, he joined the writing staff of the acclaimed NBC drama Hill Street Blues, earning an Emmy nomination and a Writers Guild award. Frost began collaborating with director David Lynch, formed Lynch-Frost Productions and created the legendary television series Twin Peaks in 1989.
