Surfing Career
Frankenreiter took up surfing as a teenager on the beaches of San Clemente, California, and was eventually signed to a sponsorship deal with the Australian-based Billabong clothing company which allowed him to travel the world over. During his travels, he would rent a room in North Shore, Oahu, Hawaii, from the parents of musician and surfing-enthusiast Jack Johnson which resulted in Frankenreiter and Johnson developing a strong friendship.
Donavon is also well known for his appearances in the Drive Thru series of surf videos.

“The problem, thus, is not whether or not women are to combine marriage and motherhood with work or career but how they are to do so—concomitantly in a two-role continuous pattern or sequentially in a pattern involving job or career discontinuities.”
—Jessie Bernard (20th century)
