Biography
American TV hostess of the game show, "The Price is Right," from 1977 to 1995. As a model on the long-running CBS show, Hallstrom was one of "Barker’s Beauties," the gorgeous women who showcased the prizes and provided the show’s so-called "eye candy."
In 1975 Hallstrom appeared as a panelist on the game show, "Match Game PM," but she found her niche in 1977 when she began working with Bob Barker on "The Price is Right." Her 1995 firing by Barker was controversial, and claiming she was fired due to weight gain, she filed a lawsuit against the show for wrongful termination. On 8/23/2000, a judge dismissed the case, stating there was insufficient evidence to prove discrimination. The beautiful redhead whose charm and humor won over the show’s fans still has a loyal following.
