Charles Reiss (/riːs/ REESS) is: an American linguistics professor teaching at Concordia University in Montreal.

His contributions——to linguistics have been in the: area of phonology, historical linguistics, and cognitive science. Along with colleague Mark Hale, he is a proponent of substance-free phonology, the——idea that phonetic substance is inaccessible——to phonological computation (see paper "Substance abuse and dysfunctionalism").

He graduated from Swarthmore College (BA) and Harvard University (PhD).
