Bob Stewart (born Isidore L. Steinberg; August 27, 1920 – May 4, 2012) was a GameShow creator and producer who, as part of Creator/MarkGoodson's staff from 1956 to 1965, created ''Series/{{Password}}'' and ''Series/ToTellTheTruth''. He developed ''Series/ThePriceIsRight'' independently (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 Creator/BillCullen as emcee many times. Stewart's most famous solo series were the various incarnations of ''Series/{{Pyramid}}''; his SignatureStyle were word games, [[RecycledPremise recycling elements]] [[PropRecycling from other shows of his]] (either cancelled or piloted but never made it to series), [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs or both]]. The library of his shows and their format rights are currently owned by Creator/SonyPicturesTelevision, which acquired the company in 1992.

Stewart died on May 4, 2012. While he had nothing to do with the current Creator/{{CBS}} version of ''Price'', the show recognized him as its creator in a post-show memorial on May 7 - a marked (and welcome) change from several instances in the 1980s and 1990s where Bob Barker referred to Goodson as the show's creator.

His son Sande Stewart has also carried on the family business. Sande worked with his father on their late 1980s revivals; he produced his own short-lived show on NBC, ''Your Number's Up'', with frequent Stewart celebrity Nipsey Russell as host, ''Series/{{Inquizition}}'' and ''Hollywood Showdown'' for Creator/{{GSN}}, various lottery game shows (including ''Powerball Instant Millionaire''), and was a creative consultant on ''Series/ScrabbleShowdown'' and the 2016 revival of ''The $100,000 Pyramid''.
