Schattschneider was born in Staten Island; her mother, Charlotte Lucille Ingalls Wood, taught Latin and was herself the daughter of a Staten Island school principal, and her father, Robert W.

Army; she began her schooling in Lake Placid, but returned to Staten Island after the war.〔 She did her undergraduate studies in mathematics at the University of Rochester, and earned a Ph.D. in 1966 from Yale University under the joint supervision of Tsuneo Tamagawa and Ichirô Satake; her thesis, in abstract algebra, concerned semisimple algebraic groups.〔 She taught at Northwestern University and the University of Illinois at Chicago Circle before joining the faculty of Moravian College in 1968, where she remained for 34 years until her retirement.〔〔Author biography from "Tiling the Plane with Congruent Pentagons", ''Mathematics Magazine'', 1978.〕 She was the first female editor of ''Mathematics Magazine'', from 1981 to 1985.〔〔
