Charles Evans (May 13, 1926 — June 2, 2007) was an American business leader. He co-founded the women's fashion house Evan-Picone in 1949 and sold it to Revlon in 1962. He and his brother-in-law, Michael Shure, then founded Evans Partnership, a real estate investment firm. In 1981, he purchased the screenplay for the comedy ''Tootsie'' (1982). His brother is Robert Evans, who produced numerous motion pictures, including ''Rosemary's Baby'' (1968), ''The Godfather'' (1972), and ''Chinatown'' (1974). ==Early life== Evans was born Charles Shapera on May 13, 1926 in Manhattan, New York, in the United States, to Archie and Florence (Krasne) Shapera.〔"Mrs. Archie Shapera." ''New York Times.'' June 2, 1962.〕〔(Miller, Stephen. "Charles Evans, 81, Founded Evan-Picone, Produced Films, Built Office Complexes." ''New York Sun.'' June 6, 2007. ) Accessed 2012-10-06.〕 His father was a dentist with a successful practice in Harlem. He had a younger brother, Robert, and sister, Alice.〔 While in his late teens, Charles' father asked his sons to change their last name to their paternal grandmother's maiden name of "Evan". (The name change was seen as a way of honoring her, as she had only a short time to live.) Charles and Robert kept the "s" as an homage to the Shapera family name.〔Evans, p. 18-19.〕 Charles was something of a conformist as a teenager.〔Evans, p. 19.〕 He graduated from the Horace Mann School in New York City, and attended the University of Miami.〔 He began serving in the United States Army in 1944〔Evans, p. 20.〕 during World War II, and left military service in 1946.〔(Deutsch, Claudia.
