Charles Hope Kerr (April 23, 1860 – June 1, 1944) was an American publisher, editor and writer. A son of abolitionists, he was a vegetarian and Unitarian in 1886 when he established Charles H. Kerr & Co. in Chicago. His publishing career is noted for his views' leftward progression toward socialism and support for the Industrial Workers of the World.
