Charles Christie Hill, CM (born 25 October 1945) is a Canadian curator and writer, well known for his exhibitions of historical Canadian art and major catalogues on the Group of Seven, Canadian Art in the 1930s, and Emily Carr. In his 47-year duration at the National Gallery of Canada (he retired in 2014), he has acted as an invaluable resource to students of historical Canadian art. In addition, he has played a key role in making the Gallery's Canadian art library and archives a key centre of research. In Canadian art what may be referred to as the Charles C. Hill brand of exhibition cataloguing offers rich resource material beyond the scholarly essays.
