Backstage at The Price Is Right is a jaw-dropping, firsthand
account of the often salacious and always fascinating
behind-the-scenes drama surrounding the #1 game show in television
history. As the groundbreaking first black model to join the
legendary Barker's Beauties, Kathleen Bradley has written a
humorous, entertaining, yet gritty revelation of what really
happened before the familiar theme music filled the air and Rod
Roddy announced Bob Barker's name over the roaring audience and
called out "Come on down " to the names of the first four lucky
contestants to bid. At last, after 17 years on the air, the
black/minority television audience had a role model, someone to
relate to as they sat and watched their favorite game show. And
America's male population had a more exotic Beauty on which to
feast their eyes and feed their fantasies. Every weekday for 10
years, over 16 million viewers watched the glamorous model/hostess
Kathleen Bradley on The Price Is Right. Women envied her, girls
aspired to be her, and Bradley was living her dream, but it all
came at a Price. As a pioneer in television game show history,
Bradley takes readers on a first-class tour from the parking lot at
CBS Television Studio City in Hollywood, through the artists'
entrance, to the production meetings, rehearsals, wardrobe, and
straight to the "lights, camera, and action " She reveals the cat
fights, the betrayals, dirty little secrets, the depositions and
law suits, the ugly truth, and the reality of what really went on
behind the scenes before and after the cameras rolled. Often
heartwarming, Ms. Bradley presents an expose of the hypocrisy,
sexism, and racism behind the scenes. This is Kathleen's story,
leading from the excitement and jubilation of embarking upon "The
Golden Road," to a rude awakening-an unjustifiable dismissal from
her dream job after ten years of devoted service. This is not a Bob
Barker-bashing book, but rather an enlightening journey of a
woman's introduction to Hollywood, her groundbreaking induction
into an exclusive and highly coveted club: the Barker's Beauties,
and her bright-eyed awe at meeting a television icon.
Unfortunately, the dark side of this "club" and the power that its
leader possessed led to the inevitable question: why did Bob Barker
treat four-legged animals better than many of his two-legged
employees?
