Charles William Beebe (ˈbiːbi; New York, 29 luglio 1877 – Arima, 4 giugno 1962) è stato un ornitologo, entomologo, esploratore, scrittore e biologo marino statunitense. Viene ricordato per le numerose spedizioni che condusse per conto della New York Zoological Society, per le profonde immersioni con la Bathysphere e per la prolifica scrittura scientifica per un pubblico sia accademico che popolare. Nato a Brooklyn, New York, e cresciuto a East Orange (New Jersey), Beebe abbandonò gli studi prima di laurearsi per poter lavorare all'allora neonato New York Zoological Park, dove fu incaricato di accudire gli uccelli dello zoo. Si fece subito notare per il suo operato, prima per la capacità di riprodurre gli habitat dei vari uccelli, e poi per una serie di spedizioni di durata crescente fino a girare il mondo per documentare i vari fagiani.
