From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Charles Frambach Berlitz (November 20, 1914, New York City - December 18, 2003) was an author known for his books about anomalous phenomena. Many of the "facts" cited in his books are considered highly questionable by people who looked up the incidents in question. For example, Larry Kusche found that some ships claimed by Berlitz to have sunk in the Bermuda Triangle did sink somewhere else, others did not even exist, and for still others, the weather was not as sunny as Berlitz said.
He was the grandson of Maximilien Berlitz (Maximilian), and inherited the Berlitz Language Schools, which he sold.
He studied at Yale University, and was a brilliant linguist (he spoke 25 different languages). He also wrote books about languages.
