Christian Karl Gerhartsreiter (born February 21, 1961) is a German (Germany) man who came to the United States and assumed many aliases. Using the alias, Clark Rockefeller, he married a Harvard business graduate student named Sandra Boss. After their estrangement, Gerhartsreiter kidnapped their daughter, Reigh Storrow Mills Boss, in July 2008 and was arrested six days later. It was determined that Gerhartsreiter had wildly embellished his background to give the impression that he was born into great wealth. He was later convicted and imprisoned on the kidnapping charge, which is presently under appeal.
