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 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]
