Born to a middle- class family in Missoula, Montana, Lynch spent his childhood traveling around the United States before he studied painting at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia, where he first made the transition to producing short films.

After" Eraserhead" became a success on the midnight movie circuit, Lynch was employed to direct the biographical film" The Elephant Man"( 1980), from which he gained mainstream success.
He was then employed by the De Laurentiis Entertainment Group and proceeded to make two films: the science- fiction epic" Dune"( 1984), which proved to be a critical and commercial failure, and then a neo- noir mystery film" Blue Velvet"( 1986), which stirred controversy over its violence but later grew in critical reputation.
Next,
Lynch created his own television series with Mark Frost, the popular murder mystery entitled" Twin Peaks"( 1990 – 1991).
He also created a cinematic prequel,( 1992), a road film" Wild at Heart"( 1990) and a family film" The Straight Story"( 1999) in the same period.

Silva appears in the Anthrax video" Only".
Frank Silva died on September 13, 1995, aged 44.
The second episode of the revived" Twin Peaks" was dedicated to Silva.
