Carl L. DeVito is a member of the emeritus faculty of the Department of Mathematics at the University of Arizona.

His other scientific work includes many papers on pure and applied mathematics and three books: Harmonic Analysis—A Gentle Introduction (2006), Functional Analysis (1978), and Functional Analysis and Linear Operator Theory (1990).
