Родители Котлера жили на Украине, а после революции эмигрировали в США.
Автор многих книг по маркетингу и менеджменту, свыше 100 статей для ведущих журналов. Единственный автор, трижды удостоенный ежегодной премии Alpha Kappa Psi, присваиваемой за лучшую статью для «Journal of Marketing». Имеет множество званий и наград за выдающийся вклад в маркетинг.
Основная его заслуга в том, что он собрал воедино и систематизировал все знания о маркетинге, которые до этого относились к совершенно различным наукам. Можно сказать, что он первый, кто выделил маркетинг в отдельную специальность. Его книга «Основы маркетинга» на 2009 год переиздавалась 9 раз и является своеобразной «Библией» по маркетингу.
