Was Bob Barker's brother "DOC"?

Question:

Was Bob Barker's brother "DOC"?

I heard Bob was Ma Barker's son.

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Bob had a half brother. Their mother was not the notorious Ma Barker.

Born in Darrington, Washington, Bob grew up on the Rosebud Indian Reservation in Rosebud, South Dakota, where his mother, Matilda ("Tillie") Valandra, was a schoolteacher. His father, Byron John Barker, was an electrical power foreman who lost his life in a fall from a utility pole in 1929. Bob has a half-brother, Kent Valandra, from Matilda's subsequent remarriage. Both Tillie and Kent have joined the studio audience for numerous tapings of The Price Is Right.
