In 1929, Hertlein was appointed assistant curator of the Department of Paleontology at the California Academy of Sciences. He rose to become the curator of Invertebrate Paleontology and elected a Fellow.
In the 1930s, he traveled to the Galapagos Islands and the nearshore areas of Central America and Mexico.
He published over 150 papers on Recent and fossil mollusks, echinoderms, and brachiopods from California, Oregon, Washington, and Mexico.[1]
On many occasions, Hertlein worked with Ulysses S. Grant IV, who was a classmate at Stanford and who also worked on the fossil mollusks of California. They collaborated on several papers.[1]
