He was a member of the New York State Senate (9th D.) from 1940 to 1943, sitting in the 162nd, 163rd, and 164th New York State Legislatures.

Law school dean
Gutman was Dean of New York Law School from 1959 to 1968.[1][5]
After hearing highly decorated 45-year-old policeman Mario Biaggi speak at an event, Dean Gutman offered him a full scholarship to New York Law School.[6][7][8] The American Bar Association granted Biaggi a special dispensation to study law due to his distinguished police career, even though he had never gone to college and a college degree was a prerequisite for law school.[7][9] In 1965, Biaggi graduated from the law school with an LLB.[6][10] In 1966, at the age of 49, he was admitted to the New York State Bar and founded the law firm Biaggi & Ehrlich, and thereafter he became a US Congressman.[7]
