You are looking at the 1971 ‘Miss Black California’ and the first permanent African-American Barker’s Beauty on The Price is Right. Fresh after having a baby, #KathleenBradley remained part of the show for a decade, from 1990 to 2000. That’s where rapper and filmmaker Ice Cube noticed and cast her in the role of the seductive Mrs. Parker in his first film, Friday.

kathleenbradley_mrsparker has also appeared in #HarlemNights, and the cult classic, #TroopBeverlyHills. Before that, she dabbled in music as a member of The Love Machine, a female singing group signed by Motown Records in the mid-1970s.

In 2013 she penned her memoir, “Backstage at The Price Is Right: Memoirs of a Barker Beauty”, where she shared an inside look at her decade-long experience on the beloved game show and her journey through the entertainment industry. 

Understand that the characters we remember are played by people with stories worth hearing 🙂‍↕️❤️
