Violet Gray is a fictional character featured in the long-running syndicated daily and Sunday comic strip Peanuts, created by Charles M. Schulz. Violet first appeared in the February 7, 1951 strip.[1] She was originally a major character, until she was eventually relegated to background and cameo appearances as other female characters became more prominent, with Lucy ultimately taking over most of Violet's character traits.
Violet is best known as a bit of a snob who likes bragging and, along with Lucy and her best friend Patty, often teases and torments Charlie Brown. She bullies other characters in the strip, particularly "Pig-Pen" and Charlie Brown.
In addition to the comic strip, Violet has appeared alongside other Peanuts characters in numerous Peanuts television specials, cinematic movies, theatrical plays, and video games.
