Ashley Cox (born November 15, 1956)[1] is an American model and actress.

Career

[edit]

Cox was Playboy magazine's Playmate of the Month for its December 1977 issue. Her centerfold was photographed by Mario Casilli.[2] Cox was one of Hugh Hefner's "Personal Playmates", a term Hefner designated women whom he dated seriously.[3]

Cox appeared in movies such as Logan's Run (1976),[4] Drive-In (1976),[5] The Nude Bomb (1980), King of the Mountain (1981), Looker (1981),[6] and Night Shift (1982).

Personal life

[edit]

She has two children and, as she told The Playboy Book in 1996:

I've been married several times, and I'm still looking for my knight in shining armor. Men think they want a fantasy girl, but when they meet somebody who's been a centerfold and dated a couple of well-known actors, I think that overwhelms them.

Many of the indoor sequences of the film were shot in her native Texas.
