Albert Gatschet byl přední filolog a etnolog, jehož celoživotní dílo se soustředilo na studium domorodých amerických jazyků. Již od mládí projevoval mimořádné lingvistické nadání, které jej vedlo ke studiu na univerzitách v Bernu a Berlíně. Jeho rané dílo o původu švýcarských místních jmen je dodnes považováno za standardní autoritu. Gatschetův zájem o jazyky jej přivedl do Spojených států, kde se stal průkopníkem ve výzkumu původních amerických jazyků, což vedlo k jeho významným publikacím o kmenech Karankawa a Klamath. Jeho hluboký a rozsáhlý záběr znalostí, inspirovaný Humboldtovým dílem, z něj učinil vlivnou postavu v oboru.
