Bob Barker recently sliced into a towering cake to commemorate his 30th season on “The Price Is Right.” – Brief Article

Bob Barker recently sliced into a towering cake to commemorate his 30th season on “The Price Is Right.” Fans of the 77-year-old are also celebrating the game-show host’s signature on a contract allowing him to share his priceless appeal with enthusiastic audiences for another five years.

Barker began a career in broadcasting to finance his college education. But after graduating with a degree in economics, he began working for a radio station in Palm Beach, Florida, then moved to Los Angeles. Within a week, he was hosting his own radio program, “The Bob Barker Show.”

The durable and dapper performer stays in shape practicing the ancient art of karate. You may be familiar with one of his former teachers, Chuck Norris of big-screen and “Walker, Texas Ranger” fame.
