His most recent study concerns the use of the elephant in ancient India.Trautmann began as an assistant professor in 1968, teaching his entire career at Ann Arbor until he was awarded emeritus status.

Born and raised in Madison, Wisconsin, he completed his undergraduate work at Beloit College and holds a PhD from the University of London, where he wrote his dissertation on the structure and composition of the Sanskrit text ''Arthasastra'' (published in book form in 1971).
