Charles Allen Culberson (June 10, 1855 – March 19, 1925) was an American political figure and Democrat who served as the 21st governor of Texas from 1895 to 1899, and as a United States senator from Texas from 1899 to 1923.
According to one study, Culberson belonged (like Jim Hogg, his predecessor as governor) “to a stream of Texas liberal populism.”
