Bob Barker
Bob Barker is the venerable king of daytime game shows. Before “The Price Is Right,” Bob hosted “Truth or Consequences,” a game show. “Truth or Consequences” ran for 18 years, ending in 1974.
“The Price Is Right” came along after that, and Bob hosted it for 30 years. “The Price Is Right” was actually born while “Truth or Consequences” was still on the air.
"For three years, I would do one show in the morning and the other in the evening," Barker explained. "Of course, I was a lot younger then." Bob collected 14 Emmy awards during those 30 years, including two as executive producer and one Lifetime Achievement Award.
A few years ago, Bob was contacted about doing his first motion picture appearance.
"Adam Sandler, who was a big fan of ‘The Price Is Right’ as a kid, had written the screenplay for ‘Happy Gilmore,’ and he included a scene that was written specifically for me, the scene on the golf course, where I beat him up," Barker recounted. "I told him that as long as I win the fight, I'll do it."
Barker noted he studied karate for several years under the actor Chuck Norris.
Bob Barker was born in Darrington, Washington, and spent most of his youth on the Rosebud Indian Reservation in South Dakota, where his mother was a schoolteacher. His family moved to Springfield, Missouri, where he attended high school and college. Today, Barker is a vocal figure in the animal rights movement. He founded the DJ&T Foundation (named after his wife and mother Tilly, both of whom loved animals), which subsidizes spay-neuter clinics and voucher programs.
