Terre Tucker (October 9, 1944 – December 16, 1990) was an American model who was Playboy magazine's Playmate of the Month for its November 1963 issue. Her centerfold was photographed by Stan Malinowski.

Tucker was born in Arizona and before appearing in Playboy, Tucker worked as an airline stewardess, a model, a dancer, a lifeguard, a salesgirl, and as a Bunny at the Playboy Club in Chicago. Her ambition was to be a singer and dancer.

The newest edition of The Playmate Book reports that Terre died on December 16, 1990. No cause of death is listed.

It needs to be pointed out that Terre Tucker is a fictitious name and history. Terre's real name was Karen Smith, born to a large family of siblings in July 1948, in Chicago.

Surprisingly, Karen was only 15 years old when she posed for Playboy in June, 1963, turning 16 the following month. After a short training assignment in Chicago, Karen transferred to the Lake Geneva Playboy Club in Wisconsin. She then went on to work in Memphis, St. Louis and finally making her way to the Seattle area.

Karen was a very close friend who lived with me in a suburb of Seattle in 1972. When we met, she was recovering from cervical cancer which was pronounced cured after 5 years. Everyone who met Karen, immediately fell in love with this funny, interesting, beautiful and very sexy person. After meeting her 16-year old sister, be assured, these features run in her family.

Among other business ventures, Karen was in great demand at car and boat shows where she signed autographs and posed for photos as Terre Tucker, throughout the 1970s and 80s.

Unfortunately, cancer returned in the late 1980s. Karen passed just before Christmas in 1990 and is survived by a son and daughter who shall remain anonymous.
