ABOUT THE BOOK
Rich Fields is the former announcer of the popular CBS game show, The Price Is Right. He arrived at Price after Bob Barker had personally hand-picked Rich as his new announcer on the show in 2004. Rich is the only TPIR announcer to have worked with both Bob Barker and Drew Carey as the show's host.
This is Rich's true story of how he always knew that one day he would be working with Bob Barker at The Price Is Right. How did he know that? What told Rich that if he put in the work, that the cosmos would reward him with his dream-job? And once Rich got the job at Price, was it the job that he'd always dreamed it would be? Hollywood can be a cruel mistress... and Rich tells a nerve-wracking story of the first time that the facade of Hollywood was lifted for him at his favorite TV game show. Spoiler Alert: Bob Barker was the one that lifted that facade and Rich says that it, "Blew his mind".
