Jack (John M.) Rottier was a photographer for the National Capital Region of the National Park Service from the early 1960s until 1975 and was an active member of the C & O Canal Association. He moved to the Washington area about 1950 as a photographer for the American Forest Products Industries. He later joined the Commerce Department and photographed trade fairs overseas, and then the Bureau of Land Management in the Interior Department, where he worked until transferring to the Park Service. In the course of his career with the Park Service, Rottier contributed to the photographic record of Lady Bird Johnson's beautification program and the development of the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington and the Wolf Trap Farm Park for the Performing Arts in Vienna.
