Gutterson was a native of Springfield, VT and attended the University of Vermont where he was a standout in track and field. He is Vermont's first and only gold medalist in the Summer Olympics. The university's athletic complex, Gutterson Fieldhouse, home to the Catamount men's and women's hockey teams is named after him. Sports Illustrated ranked him fifth on its Top 50 Vermont athletes of the 20th century, and he is an original inductee of the University of Vermont Hall of Fame and Vermont Sports Hall of Fame. In 1963, Vermont dedicated the Albert Gutterson Field House in his honor.[5]

Gutterson was an engineer by education. He worked for the Jones and Lamson Machine Co. and then, in 1925–1950, in the petroleum industry. From 1950 to 1963, he served as president of Lovejoy Tool Company, which was founded by his uncle.[6]
