Charles Thomas Beaird (July 17, 1922 – April 18, 2006) was an industrialist, newspaper publisher, philanthropist, and civic leader from Shreveport in northwestern Louisiana. A self-identified "liberal Republican", Beaird was an early champion of civil rights legislation. ==Early life and education== Beaird was the son of James Benjamin Beaird and the former Mattie Connell Fort. His mother died six weeks after his birth, and his father succumbed when he was sixteen. According to his obituary, Beaird had to grow up quickly but developed a fierce intellectual independence. He graduated from C. E. Byrd High School in Shreveport and attended Culver Military Academy in Culver, Indiana, where he joined the Black Horse Troop. He enrolled at the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, Michigan, joined the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity, and transferred to the University of Texas at Austin. With the outbreak of World War II, Beaird returned to Shreveport and enrolled at Methodist-affiliated Centenary College. He met his future wife, Carolyn Williams (August 8, 1923 – January 27, 2006), while waiting to enlist in the Naval Air training program.
