Bob Baker has forever cemented his name into TV history. He is best known for being the host of CBS’s The Price is Right. The game show is one of the network’s most successful investments to date, being considered as the longest-running daytime game show in American TV history. It premiered back in 1972, and Barker hosted it until 2007. Apart from this, the prolific host is also known for working in the show Truth or Consequence from 1956 until 1975.

Before all of Barker’s TV success, he enlisted in the Navy during World War II. He also worked part-time at a radio station while finishing his formal education and would eventually make a move to California by the ‘50s. There, he pursued a career in broadcasting, and it didn’t take long before he was given his own radio show, The Bob Barker Show.
