The obvious thing to do would be to go to the logrotate home page and look around for some version history.
There you can find the original 0.1 release in version control, and the manual page for that release gives the author as "Erik Troan <ewt@redhat.com>" and the date as "Mon Nov 18 1996".
This took about a minute.
