Game shows have more stories to tell than they have washers and dryers to give away. This Day in Game Show History is a remarkable four-volume set chronicling the best stories-on camera and off-and the most noteworthy milestones for every day in the year.In this volume, you’ll find out which game show had to build a new set as part of a lawsuit settlement...What exactly a Sony ECM-51 is and how often you saw them on television...Which legendary newsman hosted more game shows than Bob Barker and Pat Sajak combined...the game show host who moonlighted as a voice coach for TV anchormen...which radio game show was briefly interrupted when a contestant went into labor and gave birth on the air...and lots, lots more!ADAM NEDEFF has experienced TV game shows from both sides of the camera. As a contestant, he has played Trivial Pursuit: America Plays, Catch-21, and Who’s Still Standing? As an employee, he has worked for The Price is Right and Wheel of Fortune. He is a freelance writer and former disc jockey originally from Vienna, West Virginia, and now residing in Glendale, California.
