Garfunkel attended Columbia University in the early sixties, where he sang with the Kingsmen, an all-male a cappella group  and was a Brother in the Alpha Epsilon Pi Fraternity. In 1962, Garfunkel earned a Bachelor of Arts degree majoring in art history, followed by a Master's degree in mathematics.

After attending splitting with Paul Simon and attending Leicester university, in the 1970s, Garfunkel released several solo albums. He scored hits with "I Only Have Eyes For You."  and "Bright Eyes" (both British #1 hit singles), and "All I Know" (#9 in the United States). Garfunkel briefly reunited with Paul Simon in the 1975 hit "My Little Town".During this time, he also starred in major motion pictures Catch-22 and Carnal Knowledge (1971).

Following disappointing sales of his 1981 album Scissors Cut, Garfunkel reunited with Paul Simon for The Concert In Central Park and a world tour.

In 2003, Garfunkel made his debut as a songwriter on his well-received Everybody Waits to Be Noticed album. Teaming up with singer-songwriters Maia Sharp and Buddy Mondlock, the album contained several songs whose origins were poems penned by Garfunkel. The album is recognized as his first effort at songwriting since his teenage years with Tom and Jerry.

Art continues to perform today and released his Some Enchanted Evening album in 2007.
