Editing The Price Is Right (section)

===Production staff===
The game show production team of [[Mark Goodson]] and [[Bill Todman]] was responsible for producing the original as well as the revival versions of the game show. Goodson-Todman staffer [[Bob Stewart (television producer)|Bob Stewart]] is credited with creating the original version of ''The Price Is Right''.<ref>{{citation|title=Bob Stewart, Inventor of Game Shows, Is Dead at 91 |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2012/05/08/arts/television/bob-stewart-inventor-of-game-shows-is-dead-at-91.html |work=The New York Times |date=May 7, 2012 |access-date=February 14, 2018}}</ref> [[Roger Dobkowitz]] was the producer from 1984 to 2008, having worked with the program as a production staffer since the show's debut after graduating from [[San Francisco State University]]. Occasionally, Dobkowitz appeared on-camera when answering a question posed by the host, usually relating to the show's history or records. When he left the show at the end of season 36, ''[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]]'' reported that it was unclear whether he was retiring or was fired,<ref>{{cite news|work=Variety|title='Price Is Right' producer exits: Dobkowitz departs show after 36 seasons|date=July 18, 2008|access-date=July 18, 2008|first=Stuart|last=Levine

As of 2011, the show uses multiple producers, all long-time staffers. Adam Sandler (not to be confused with [[Adam Sandler|the actor]]) is the producer and director of the show. [[Stan Blits]], who joined the show in 1980 and Sue MacIntyre are the co-producers. Stan Blits is also the contestant coordinator for the show.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.businessinsider.com/how-price-is-right-made-drew-carey-bob-barker-2018-10 |title=How 'The Price Is Right' is made |last=Fierberg |first=Emma |date=2018-10-16 |website=[[Business Insider]] |access-date=2019-03-26}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/style/wp/2019/01/11/feature/how-the-price-is-right-endures-as-tvs-oldest-most-beloved-daytime-game-show |title=Come on down!

In the book he dispels the myth that contestants are chosen at random, and gives readers an inside look at how shows are planned and produced. Kathy Greco joined the show in 1975 and became producer in 2008; she announced her retirement on October 8, 2010, on the show's website, effective at the end of the December 2010 tapings. Her last episode as producer, which aired January 27, 2011, featured a theme in tribute to her. The show's official website featured a series of videos including an interview with Greco as a tribute to her 35 years in the days leading up to her final episode.<ref>{{cite web|title=Kathy Greco Makes a Difficult Decision|url=http://www.priceisright.com/blog/entry/1854|work=The Price Is Right|last=Grece|first=Kathy|access-date=July 11, 2011|date=October 8, 2010|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101013163735/http://www.priceisright.com/blog/entry/1854|archive-date=October 13, 2010}}</ref> [[Frank Wayne]], a Goodson-Todman staffer since the 1950s, was the original executive producer of the CBS version of the show. Barker assumed that role after Wayne's death in March 1988. Previous producers have included [[Jay Wolpert]], Barbara Hunter, and Phil Wayne Rossi (Wayne's son). Michael Dimich assumed the director's chair in June 2011.<ref>{{cite web|title=Farewell and Welcome|url=http://www.priceisright.com/blog/entry/3180|work=The Price Is Right|access-date=July 11, 2011|last=Sandler|first=Adam|date=June 14, 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130404063425/http://www.priceisright.com/blog/entry/3180|archive-date=April 4, 2013}}</ref> [[Marc Breslow]], [[Paul Alter]], Bart Eskander, and Rich DiPirro each served long stints previously as director. Former associate directors Andrew Felsher and Fred Witten, as well as technical director Glenn Koch, have directed episodes strictly on a fill-in basis. Sandler began directing episodes in 2012, and became the official director in 2013. 

Aside from Barker, the show's production staff remained intact after Carey became host. FremantleMedia executive Syd Vinnedge was named the program's new executive producer, with Richards becoming co-executive producer after Dobkowitz's firing. Richards was a candidate to replace Barker as host in 2007, before Carey was ultimately chosen.<ref name="mikerichard">{{cite magazine|url=https://variety.com/2008/scene/news/price-names-executive-producer-1117990000/|magazine=Variety|last=Levine|first=Stuart|title='Price' names executive producer|date=August 4, 2008|access-date=July 24, 2014}}</ref> Richards succeeded Vinnedge as executive producer when the 2009–10 season started, with Tracy Verna Soiseth joining Richards as co-executive producer in 2010.<ref>{{Cite episode |series=The Price Is Right |network=CBS |date=October 18, 2010 |number=5331}}</ref> Vinnedge remains credited as an executive consultant to the show.<ref>{{Cite episode |series=The Price Is Right |network=CBS |date=October 20, 2010 |number=5273K}}</ref> Richards oversaw a major overhaul of the show, dismissing some personnel who had served under Barker and Dobkowitz in an effort to improve the show's performance in [[key demographic]]s, which continued a change in the demographic of viewers after the movie ''[[Happy Gilmore]]'' (which featured Barker in a fight).
