Charles C. Ritz (August 1, 1891 – July 11, 1976) was a French hotelier and fly fishing specialist. ==Biography== Charles Ritz was the first of two sons〔Charles, born 1891, and René (1896-1918), who chose not to continue in the family hotel business〕 born to Swiss hotelier César Ritz (born 1850) and Marie-Louise Beck (born 1867, whose family also owned and ran a hotel in Menton). He did not know his itinerant father well, and César died when Charles was 27 years old. Charles Ritz emigrated to the United States in 1916 where he became a soldier in the US Army. When World War I ended, Ritz returned to the US, and soon spent considerable time mastering the art of fly-fishing in the American West. He married Elisabeth Pierce. Ritz remarried in 1971 and retired from the hotel presidency in 1976, three months before his death. He is buried in Père Lachaise Cemetery alongside his first wife. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Charles Ritz」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
