Teri Hope (born Natalie Hope Reisberg, February 19, 1938 – September 26, 2023) was an American model and actress.[2] She was Playboy magazine's Playmate of the Month for the September 1958 issue.[2] Her centerfold was photographed by Don Bronstein and Mike Shea.

Hope was born on February 19, 1938. She attended Carnegie Tech in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.[1][3] While attending a Playboy-themed party at the Beta Sigma Rho (now merged with Pi Lambda Phi) fraternity house, chapter members proclaimed her the "Party Playmate" and submitted her photos to Playboy.[2]

Hope went on to enjoy a modest acting career in the 1960s, including appearances in two Elvis Presley movies, 1963's Fun in Acapulco and 1964's Roustabout.[2]

Teri Hope was married to Jay Redack and died in Albuquerque, New Mexico, on September 26, 2023, at the age of 85.[4]
