Early Life[]

Originally hailing from Queensland, Australia. In the early 2000s, Gleave, at then-24 years of age, made a huge decision that could possibly change her life forever as well as looking for a change of pace. Gleave packed her bags and moved to America to pursue her dreams in acting, modeling and fashion.

The Price is Right & Deal or No Deal[]

Living in America for almost two years, Gleave found success when she landed one of her first major gigs in front of the camera. That gig was appearing as one of Barker's Beauties on the television Game Show The Price is Right during it's 31st season on the air. She made her nationwide debut on the series on (air-date) October 29, 2002 and continuing to appear until November 11, 2002, followed by additional appearances from December 12, 2002 to December 18, 2002, then from January 10, 2003 to January 30, 2003, returning for four more appearances from April 7, 2003 to April 11, 2003, then from June 20, 2003 to June 26, 2003, plus one solo appearance on September 2 (which was rescheduled twice due to coverage of the Iraq war), which marked the final appearances of both her and Jennifer England (and also the season finale episode of Season 31). Altogether, Lisa has taped 40 shows and with those 40 appearances, she ranked as the 3rd rotating model to have taped the most episodes. Shane Stirling (first appearance on October 15, 2002) ranked 2nd with 74 episodes and Brandi Sherwood-Cochran (first appearing during the 2001 model tryouts and returning on September 24, 2002) ranked 1st with 95 episodes) during Season 31.

In December 2005, Gleave and Claudia Jordan, while having remained close friends after their departures from Price, were reunited as they appeared together as the Briefcase models on the newly NBC Prime-time Game Show Deal or No Deal (2005-09), debuting the week of the 19th-23rd and returning to the airwaves in February 2006 as a prime-time regular. While Jordan, during the week-long trial run, stood beside briefcase #9 and then moved down to briefcase #1 when the show returned to the airwaves as a prime-time regular, Gleave stood beside briefcase #3 for the show's entire run (final episode aired on May 18, 2009).

They also appeared together (along with fellow briefcase models Leyla Milani, Megan Abrigo, and Patricia Kara) at the 2009 Game Show Awards on the Game Show Network (Ironically enough hosted by Howie Mandel) representing Deal or No Deal as they won the Favorite Game Show Models category.
