Charles Edwin Winter (September 13, 1870 – April 22, 1948) was an American attorney, politician, and author who served as a member of the United States House of Representatives for Wyoming's at-large congressional district from 1923 to 1929.

He graduated from the Nebraska Wesleyan University in 1892, studied law, and was admitted to the bar in 1895.

He was a delegate to the Republican National Convention in 1908 and was a judge of the sixth judicial district of Wyoming from 1913 to 1919.

During the summer of 1903, while traveling on a train in Pennsylvania, Winter wrote the lyrics to "Wyoming", the official state song.

His western novels included Grandon of Sierra, about a cowboy who gives up ranging to be a prospector in the Encampment copper rush, and Ben Warman, which was adapted into the 1920 film Dangerous Love.
