A prominent American photographer and photojournalist of the twentieth century, Arthur Rothstein was born on July 17, 1915 in New York, New York. The youngest son of Latvian immigrants, he grew up in the Bronx and attended Stuyvesant High School. He took his undergraduate degree at Columbia College (BA, Chemistry, 1935), where he developed an interest in the technical aspects of photography and was a founding member of the Columbia University Camera Club. Upon graduation Rothstein was hired as a lab assistant and photographer by Roy Stryker, a Columbia economist and head of the Resettlement Administration's Historical Section. Stryker had been asked by colleagues in the Roosevelt administration to form a group of documentary photographers to work within what became known as the Farm Security Administration. In addition to Rothstein, FSA photographers included Jack Delano, Walker Evans, Dorothea Lange, Russell Lee, Carl Mydans, Gordon Parks, John Vachon, and Marion Post Wolcott, among others. The work of these photographers was circulated nationally, and did much to crystallize public attention on impoverished conditions in both rural and urban America.
In October 1935, Rothstein completed his first field assignment, photographing evicted farmers in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. The following year, he traveled to the Midwest to document the large-scale human and environmental devastation of the Dust Bowl, producing what would soon become iconic photographs of tenant farm families and drought-stricken land. Subsequent FSA projects resulted in a diverse and prolific body of work, including images of Pittsburgh steel workers, African-American tenant farmers at Gee's Bend, Alabama, Western ranchers and cowhands, rural schoolchildren, Manhattan skyscrapers, and snow-covered New England landscapes.
Speaking about his tenure with the FSA in a 1964 interview, Rothstein likened his photographic approach to "the unobtrusive camera," or "the idea of becoming a part of the environment that people are in to such an extent that they're not even aware that pictures are being taken."
In 1940, Rothstein joined the staff of the popular periodical
Over the following decades, Rothstein continued his career with LOOK magazine, having been named its director of photography in 1946. After LOOK ceased publication in 1971, Rothstein worked as an editor and director of photography at Parade magazine.
Rothstein was an active writer, researcher, and teacher, holding positions on the faculties of the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism, the School of Public Communications at Syracuse University, Mercy College, and Parsons School of Design. In the 1960s and 1970s, he dedicated considerable professional energies to researching color and three-dimensional photography, helping develop the Xograph printing process for three-dimensional images.
Among his publications include:
Rothstein died on November 11, 1985 in New Rochelle, New York.
Arthur Rothstein and Richard Doud, "Arthur Rothstein Talks with Richard Doud [original transcript, 1964],"

This series contains photographs taken by Rothstein for the photography project and exhibition, "Working together: A Utah Portfolio." In the spring of 1982, the Utah-based Oral History Institute launched an "Ethnic and minority documentary project," which sought to document the lives of eight communities living in the state: African American, Greek, Jewish, Japanese, Hispanic, Chinese, Italian, and Ute. Rothstein joined the project in early 1985, and worked alongside other photographers, including George Janecek and Kent Miles. Includes oversize material. The series is divided into the following subseries, based on subject matter.
Subseries 1: Landscape, Natural environment contains images of rock formations at Arches National Park and petroglyphs at the Newspaper Rock State Historic Monument in Canyonlands National Park.

This series consists of photographs printed or collected by and/or given to Rothstein throughout his career. A significant number of these photographs are copy prints, related to volumes of "masterpieces" from late 19th and early 20th century photographic history, published by the Photographic Historical Society of New York for sale to the general public. Photographs were selected, reprinted, and compiled into portfolios by Rothstein, and includes work by Alfred Stieglitz, Dorothea Lange, Ben Shahn, Walker Evans, Alvin Langdon Coburn, Oscar Rejlander, Henry Peach Robinson, Timothy O'Sullivan, Matthew Brady, Lewis Hine, and others. This series also includes two sets of complete portfolios. Also included in the series are images by other photographers for >Parade, and other magazines, as well as additional images by other FSA photographers, including John Vachon, Russell Lee, and Marion Post Wolcott. Several of the photographs in this series were given as gifts to Rothstein; they frequently have inscriptions or writing on the reverse side of the print. Photographs have been organized alphabetically by creator (last name, first name). Those by unknown or unidentified photographers appear at the end of the series.

Portfolio with photographic prints enclosed : 2 items
This series contains black and white and color negatives, many of which are copy negatives produced for specific exhibitions over the course of Rothstein's career, related to the above listed photographic prints. It has been organized into subseries that correspond to series I-VII (FSA, China, Other Countries, Politicians and Presidents, Life – United States, Utah, and Photographs – Other Creators). Within each folder, individual sleeves containing negatives are arranged in the same order in which their corresponding photographic prints are organized (e.g. for the FSA folder, negatives appear alphabetically by region, and for the China folder, negatives have been divided into folders labeled "Starvation and UNRRA Aid," "People," "Landscape and Built Environment," and "European Refugees," and so on). Individual sleeves are labeled with the title and date of the enclosed negative(s). Corresponding contact prints have been noted in the finding aid, and are enclosed with the negatives in their individual sleeves.
Negatives appear in two locations depending on their size: those 8x10 or smaller are in a standing file box, and those that have 11x14 dimensions are in an archival box. As with the photographic prints, if an object has two locations, it will appear listed twice. The same folder groupings apply for both locations. The researcher should also note that a considerable amount of negatives, particularly those relating to "China" and "Other Countries," do not have a corresponding photographic print in this collection.
