Robert Earle

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Robert Earle (b. January 5, 1926 in Baldwin, New York - present) was a host of G.E. College Bowl, an American game show that was broadcast first by CBS, later by NBC. Earle was the second host of the show, succeeding Allen Ludden, who left the show in 1962 to host Password. Earle hosted College Bowl during its entire NBC run, from 1962 to 1970.

Following his seven-year success as host of G.E. College Bowl, he hosted a game show pilot for ABC in 1975 called King of the Hill (not related to the popular Fox cartoon of that name). The pilot did not sell.
