Hope was born April 4, 1956, in Prairie du Chien, WI. According to her Playmate of the Month pictorial, Hope lived on her grandfather’s farm in Wisconsin for 15 years. She moved to California, where she attended high school. Hope had already appeared in Playboy before her Playmate of the Month pictorial, and continued to pose afterward.

According to the book “Inside the Playboy Mansion,” Hugh Hefner “dated” Hope for a while. She was a close personal friend of fellow Playmate Patti McGuire. Together, they were part of the inner circle the Playboy Mansion West.

She also made a guest appearance on an episode of the television show “Fantasy Island” in 1978.

Hope is quoted in  “The Playmate Book: Five Decades of Centerfolds” as saying, “I went to school, got a degree in early childhood education, and now I have my own home day-care center.” The book reported that she was living in Wisconsin as of 1996 and had two children, a son and a daughter. “And I have seven sisters and two brothers in the area. Between family and friends and business, I don’t have much time to spare. But I’m quite content.
