My version of iPhoto is 9.6.1. Per the Go64 app, it is 32-bit. All 32-bit apps will be unusable with Catalina. Is there an update to iPhoto that I can download to bring it up to 64-bit? NOTE: An old Community post said that iPhoto is a 64-bit app, but it ain't on my 15" 2018 MacBook Pro or my iMac.
Help help.

No you can't. iPhoto was discontinued more than 4 years ago and replaced with Photos. This comes free with your OS. You can migrate to Photos easily:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch Photos. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and point at your iPhoto Library. It will do the rest.

The problem with iPhoto is that it also has 32 bit dependencies. I have no way of correcting that, 'm just a user like yourself.
Sorry, I didn't mention in my original post that, although I'm often a Lightroom CC user, I do send all of my non-Lr iPhone images to Photos ... and, that I did migrate from iPhoto to Photos years ago.
However, I did find some more recent photos that I'd mistakenly placed in iPhoto but not in Photos, not very clever of me. In preparation for upgrading to Catalina I discovered (not surprisingly) that iPhoto was 32-bit. I first checked to confirm that iPhoto was truly 32-bit and came across your answer to ZzyzxOh back on August 30, 2013: "The most recent version of iPhoto is 64 bit." Therefore, I decided to ask my question today. Btw, I don't know if you can remove that answer or update it. Doing that would probably be a good idea for other Mac users.
Your reminder of how to make certain that all of my iPhoto images have been migrated to Photos was REALLY helpful.
Can I update iPhoto to 64-bit before I upgrade to Catalina
