Three successful professionals share the influence that Charles M. Schulz, creator of the “Peanuts” comics, has had on their lives and in the world in general. First is Kate DiCamillo, award-winning children’s book writer; next is cartoonist Stephan Pastis who co-wrote the first graphic novel containing Peanuts characters, titled “Happiness is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown!”; and Washington Post cartoonist and Comic Riffs blogger Michael Cana. Peanuts was created by Schultz on October 2, 1950 and still runs in syndication today. On January 3, 2000, the last original weekday Peanuts comic strip was published and the final Sunday strip was published on February 13, 2000.
