Otto H. Ehrlich was born in Vienna in 1892. He studied law and economics and received his Ph.D. During WW I Otto Ehrlich served in the Austrian army and advanced from the rank of cadet officer to 1st lieutenant. After the war Otto Ehrlich became a junior officer at the Allgemeine Depositen Bank where he remained until 1925. After that he was teaching and got involved in the advertising and public relations business
He left Vienna with his wife, Rosa, in 1939 and immigrated to the US. The couple did not receive an affidavit for their sixteen year old daughter Hildegard, who stayed with her aunt in London. After they arrived in New York, they were able to obtain a visa for their daughter. She was on board the Athenia, when it was torpedoed by a German submarine, and was killed
Ehrlich first taught at Brooklyn College, where he met his second wife, Edna. He later taught at the City College of New York and then at New York University, where he taught economics for nearly 10 years before retiring.
