Charles Bradford "Charlie" Black Jr. also known as Hawk (June 15, 1921 in Arco, IdahoDecember 22, 1992) was an American basketball player.

He played collegiately as a forward for the University of Kansas where he was a four-time first-team All-American (the only one in Jayhawk history).

He was a member of the Jayhawks' 1943 Big 6 conference championship team (which also featured two-time All-American guard Ray Evans, and four-time all-conference forward Otto Schnellbacher) that is regarded as one of the greatest teams in KU's proud basketball history.

He played for the Indianapolis Jets (1948-49), Fort Wayne Pistons (1949-50), Anderson Packers (1949-50) and Milwaukee Hawks (1950-51) in the NBA for 136 games.
