Legal minimum connecting time from international to international flights at Frankfurt is 45 minutes, so you should be fine.

I assume you have a valid US visa? If not, you will need a transit visa for Germany (Schengen).

This also assumes that it's all on one ticket, so the airline will help you out if your inbound flight is late. On two tickets, and especially two non-changable tickets, you might want to allow more time
