Monica Tidwell (born January 14, 1954) is an American model. She was born in Shreveport, Louisiana. A red-head, she was Playboy magazine's Playmate of the Month for the November 1973 issue; her centerfold was photographed by Dwight Hooker and Bill Frantz. Tidwell was the first Playmate who was younger than the magazine itself: she was 19 at the time of the photo shoot, [1] having been born just as the second issue of Playboy was hitting the newsstands. [2]

Tidwell was the Primary Producer of the 2008 Off Broadway play Mindgame in New York City. [3] Written by Anthony Horowitz (writer of Foyle's War), the play was directed by British film director Ken Russell and starred Keith Carradine, Lee Godart and Kathleen McNenny. [4]
