Patricia attended Ohio State University and joined the Delta Gamma Sorority house where she graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Drama. She soon married a fellow Catholic (Chuck Heaton) who worked as a writer for The Plain Dealer.
However, her marriage to Heaton came to a close. She's been married again in 1990 to the English actor and director David Hunt. The couple has four sons and they live in England and Los Angeles.
After her divorce from her first husband, she went through a self-described "Protestant wilderness." Since June 2017, Heaton's first marriage has been annulled by the Catholic Church and she had returned as an observant of Catholicism

Yet, it wasn't until 1987 that Heaton when she got her big break on Broadway during an appearance in the chorus of 'Don't Get God Started'. The production bonded many of the Espers' students who collaborated to build an off-Broadway acting troupe entitled, 'Stage Three.'
