In the 2015 film The Peanuts Movie, Patty shows a crush towards Pig-Pen. Patty is also known for asking Pig-Pen why he is constantly so dirty.
Eventually, she, along with Violet, became best known for their social snobbery and combined cruelty to Charlie Brown, although Violet was generally the more dominant of the two (thus Patty's role, in her later appearances, was reduced to that of a yes-girl). She was apparently the oldest child in the strip (possibly along with Violet and Shermy), as she attended school when Charlie Brown did not (strip of September 18, 1951). Patty's name was first mentioned on October 26, 1950, 24 days after her first appearance. In her (and the strip's) second appearance, Patty is shown walking down the sidewalk reciting "Little girls are made of sugar and spice and everything nice." She then punches Charlie Brown in the face and, without missing a beat, continues "That's what little girls are made of!"

Patty made her television debut in the 1965 classic A Charlie Brown Christmas, and appeared in many of the succeeding specials and theatrical animated films, the most recent of the specials being Happiness Is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown.

Her last appearance was a rerun of a 1992 strip which was republished on November 27, 1997. She continued to make cameo or background appearances until the early 1990s. Although the original Patty would make cameo appearances throughout the run of Peanuts, she had ceased being a featured character by about 1975. By 1966, Schulz recycled the Patty name for a new character: "Peppermint" Patty Reichardt.
In subsequent strips, Patty's character developed and she appeared regularly, but she eventually became less and less prominent until her succeeding appearances were reduced to mere cameos. Patty was featured in the first Peanuts comic strip, on October 2, 1950. Schulz then reused the character for Peanuts, and there he named her Patty. )Īn early conception of the character was created by Schulz for his comic strip Li'l Folks (a precursor to Peanuts).

Patty has appeared in numerous Peanuts television specials, cinematic films, theatrical plays, and video games. She usually accompanies her best friend Violet and sometimes the abrasive Lucy. Patty is best known as a girl who thinks highly of herself, and because of her self-opinion, she often torments the hapless Charlie Brown.
