Frank are still working with the Muppets. But he has scaled down on his work with the muppets, mainly because the lack of time. His main focus is his director jobs.
But he does some segments in the new episodes of Sesame Street from what I've heard.
Actually most of Franks characters have been recast to Eric Jacobsen, so it's not a voice actor but a new puppeteer.
