gmtime in scalar context should do the trick: 

perl -e 'print scalar( gmtime(  915725119  ) ),"\n"'

Update:There's a lot of talk about which CPAN date module to use but for whatever reason, I always fall back on Date::Manip. With that module, you have tons of control over lots of most aspects of time: 

perl -MDate::Manip -e 'print UnixDate( ParseDate(scalar(gmtime(9157251
+19))), "%m/%d/%Y %i:%M:%S %p"), "\n"'

(there's probably tons of ways to simplify that). Or if you just need a pretty string, you could always use strftime: 
#!/usr/bin/perl

use POSIX qw( strftime );

print strftime( "%m/%d/%Y %l:%M:%S %p", gmtime( 915725119 ) ), "\n";

(format strings to strftime tend to be platform dependent)
