Phil Catalfomo received a B.S. in Biology from Providence College and a B.S. in Pharmacy from the University of Connecticut, where, incidentally, he received the Kilmer Prize under the tutelage of Art Schwarting. He then obtained M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Pharmacognosy from the University of Washington (1960 and 1962, respectively), with Varro Tyler as his Ph.D. mentor.
