Charles William Sternberg was the son of George F. Sternberg and his first wife, Mabel Smith Sternberg.
Charles helped his father collect fossils as a teenager, much the same as George F. Sternberg had worked on fossils with his father, Charles H. Sternberg. He is credited with making several significant discoveries, including the 30 ft Tylosaurus proriger specimen (FHSM VP-3) currently on exhibit at the Sternberg Museum of Natural History in Hays, Kansas.
Charles graduated from Hays High School. After his parent's divorce he moved to Chicago with his mother and sister, Ethel May. His heart wasn't in paleontology and he went on to study geology and earned his Masters Degree at the University of Chicago.
While he was in college in Chicago, Charles W. Sternberg married Alta Marie Holloway (b. July 10, 1913 - d. Dec. 26, 1998). There were no children from this marriage.
Charles graduated from college with a degree in geology and later worked as a field geologist in Turkey and Israel, as well as the United States.
Charles died in Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina on 26 June, 1994. His body was donated to the East Carolina School of Medicine, Greenville, North Carolina.
