Career
Born in Arteaga, Michoacán, she made her acting debut in the stage as part of Chato Ortín's theatrical company.{{cite news|title=Víctima de paro cardíaco falleció la actriz de cine Consuelo Frank|url=http://h.elsiglodetorreon.com.mx/Default/Scripting/ArticleWin.asp?From=Search&Key=EDT/1991/04/06/48/Ar04800.xml&CollName=EDT_1990_1999&DOCID=584400&PageLabelPrint=48&skin=ElSiglo&AppName=2&sLanguage=English&Content=ALL&selLanguage=&sPublication=EDT&sQuery=consuelo%2bfrank&sScopeID=DR&sDateFrom=02%252F26%252F1922&sDateTo=12%252F31%252F2000&x=0&y=0&ViewMode=HTML&FontSize=l1|accessdate=13 June 2015|work=El Siglo de Torreón|date=6 April 1991}} Her film debut came in Tierra, amor y dolor (1935), co-starring Domingo Soler. Her refined beauty and regal bearing caused her to be typecast as noblewomen and queens, such as Elisabeth Farnese in Rosa de Francia (1935), Anne of Austria in Los tres mosqueteros (1942), and the Viceroy's wife in Macario (1960). She died in 1991, at the age of 78.{{citation needed|date= October 2022}}
