Charles Louis Schultze (December 12, 1924 – September 27, 2016) was an American economist and public policy analyst. He served as the Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers during the President Carter Administration.

Kennedy in 1962, and was the Director from 1965 until 1968 during President Lyndon Johnson's Great Society agenda. He was also a veteran of World War II, during which he served in the army.
A native of Alexandria, Virginia, Schultze graduated from Gonzaga College High School and received his bachelor's (1948) and master's (1950) degrees in economics from Georgetown University.
