The Bob Barker story and many others are included in Kathleen’s memoir/tell-all book titled, “Backstage at The Price is Right: Memoirs of a Barker Beauty.”
In the book, she explains, in further detail, how she and the other women on The Price Is Right had severe issues with bulimia, sexual harassment, how they were always in fear of losing their jobs and it also has inside stories about her interactions with other male celebrities during that time and tensions on the set.
Kathleen’s past battle with bulimia wasn’t good for her or the people around her. Bulimia is an eating disorder that is characterized by consuming a large amount of food in a short amount of time, followed by an attempt to rid oneself of the calories consumed, usually by vomiting, laxative, diuretics, or excessive exercise.
