Ana Patricia Navidad Lara (born May 20, 1973) is a Mexican actress and singer, born in El Carrizal, Sonora, Mexico.

She developed an interest in music before acting, mainly influenced by her father, Jesus, and is quoted as saying that his voice has been her inspiration since she was born. When Paty was nine years old she sang to the public for the first time in a school festival and at fifteen made her first professional debut.

Two years later Paty saw a greater opportunity in the Señorita Sinaloa contest which offered as a grand prize a scholarship to Centro de Educación Artística de Televisa (Center of Artistic Education in Television) in Mexico City. In 1993 while at CEA she acted in Los Parientes Pobres, and several other films until she hit it big with her role in Cañaveral de Pasiones. The role was noticed immediately by the country and after three years became famous as an actress.

From 1997-2000 she costarred with René Casados as conductora in the comedy musical show Picardía Mexicana. In 1998-2004 she acted in soap operas, the most famous being 2003's Mariana de la Noche as the role of Yadira. However, although famous as an actress, she did not abandon her musical career, releasing the album Instantes in 1998 which reached sales of over 100,000.

In 2000 Patricia Navidad was awarded Queen of the Banda in the Carnival of Mazatlán, Sinaloa for the recording of the disc Don Cruz Lizárraga presenta a Patricia Navidad: Raíces de mi tierra (Don Cruz Lizárraga presents to Patricia Navidad: Roots of my homeland).
