Ashraf Aziz received his schooling in East Africa. But his real schooling had started much earlier at home – in Hindustani film songs, which became a life-long passion. After attending the Makerere University (Kampala, Uganda), he was awarded a scholarship to go to the United States in 1965, where he completed his Ph.D. in zoology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1974.

He continues to do research in the anatomical sciences as well as the popular culture of South Asia.
