Best known for the iconic comic strip which is slated to become a state license plate when enough takers purchase the Snoopy-laden plate, Schulz lived and worked in California from 1958 til his passing in 2000.
To this day, the “Peanuts” comic strip holds a beloved place in the hearts of young and old alike, bridging generations and cultures with its timeless antics and heartfelt messages.
Schulz, who lived in Santa Rosa, CA most of his life was honored with the Spirit of California medal along with Charles & Ray Eames and many others.
This year’s medal recipients join 88 Californians previously inducted into the California Hall of Fame for contributions to the worlds of art, science, literature, activism, technology, philanthropy, entertainment, business and sports.
