Charles E. Arnt (August 20, 1906 – August 6, 1990) was an American film actor from 1933 to 1962. Arnt appeared as a character actor in more than 200 films.[1]

Arnt was born in Michigan City, Indiana, the son of a banker.[2] He graduated from Phillips Academy and Princeton University. While at Princeton, he helped to found the University Players[clarification needed] and was president of the Princeton Triangle Club theatrical troupe.[1] He became a banker after he graduated from college.[2]

In the early 1930s, Arnt acted with the University Repertory Theater in Maryland.[2] On Broadway, he appeared in Carry Nation (1932), Three Waltzes (1937), and Knickerbocker Holiday (1938).[3]

In 1962, Arnt retired from acting and began to import and breed Charolais cattle on a ranch in Washington state.[1] Arnt died in Orcas Island, Washington.[1]
