Charles Nalder Baeyertz (15 December 1866 – 5 June 1943) was a New Zealand teacher, journalist, editor, publisher and music critic. He was born on 15 December 1866 in Richmond, Victoria, to bank manager Charles Baeyertz and his wife Emilia Baeyertz. When his father died in a shooting accident, Baeyertz was put into boarding school and his mother became a famous evangelist. He graduated with a licentiate from the London College of Music and moved to New Zealand with his wife Bella.

Whilst in New Zealand, Baeyertz founded a journal, The Triad, which he edited and co-owned for 32 years. The journal became the most successful literary magazine of the time, supposedly found "in every club, hotel and reading-room throughout Australasia".
