Charles Edward Derbyshire (January 17, 1880 – April 10, 1933) was an American educator and translator active in the Philippines in the early 20th century. Derbyshire is best known for his English translations of Filipino nationalist José Rizal's novels Noli Me Tángere (1887) and El Filibusterismo (1891), titled The Social Cancer and The Reign of Greed, respectively. Published in 1912, they were the first non-abridged English translations, and were used for decades until they were superseded by León Ma. Guerrero and Soledad Lacson-Locsin's translations.
