Historian, author.

Rothert, the youngest of five children born to German immigrant parents, graduated from Notre Dame in 1892. After that he spent some years working at odd jobs traveling around the West and Mexico writing a newspaper column and working on his "History of Muhlenberg County" (1913), which received much acclaim upon its publication. In 1917, Rothert was elected secretary of the Filson Club in Louisville, a non-saleried position which he held until his health forced him to retire in 1945. "Uncle Otto", as he was affectionately known, became an institution at the Filson Club and was instrumental, along with R.C. Ballard Thruston and Ludie J. Kinkead, in bringing about its resurrection.
