She was born to Ben and Dorothy Schubert on January 5, 1930 in Ontario, Oregon. She lived in Idaho during her formative years and showed early artistic promise. She also became an accomplished swimmer and was Idaho state diving champion.

She became affiliated for a number of years with the Sight & Insight Art Center of Anne and Dick O'Hanlon in Mill Valley. For many years she maintained her own studio and showed her work in the Industrial Center Building in Sausalito where her emphasis was on creation of abstract acrylic works of art. She had a number of one-woman shows in the Bay Area and beyond. She traveled widely, having lived for extended periods of time in Morocco, Paris, and London and visited many other parts of the world.
Patricia Zippin was educated at College of Idaho in Caldwell Idaho, California College of Arts & Crafts in Oakland California, Boise State University in Boise Idaho, Academie Julian in Paris France, Port Lyauty in French Morocco, The Museum School in Philadelphia Pennsylvania, and Fleisher Memorial in Philadelphia Pennsylvania.
