Who was the Pharisee who was personally converted by Jesus Christ?
There was a Pharisee named Nicodemus who came to Jesus secretly at night, later spoke up for him in the Sanhedrin, and later still helped Joseph of Arimathea bury him, so he may be the one your're looking for. But Saul/Paul wasn't just struck blind. On the road to Damascus, he heard a celestial voice demanding, "Why do you persecute me?" and he evidently just KNEW that it was God speaking to him, because he replied, "Who are you, Lord?" When the voice replied, "I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting," that contentious Pharisee became a Christian.
