Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.

As a member of Mark Goodson's staff from 1956-65, Stewart created Password and To Tell the Truth. He developed The Price Is Right independently (as The Sky's The Limit then as NBC pilot as Auction-Aire), and it was picked up by Goodson-Todman in 1956. In 1965, Stewart left Goodson-Todman and started his own production company with Bill Cullen as emcee many times.

Stewart died on May 4, 2012 and, while he had nothing to do with the current CBS version of Price, the show recognized him as its creator in a post-show memorial on May 7.
