Marsh graduated from Woodlawn High School and Samford University. He earned a master's in theater at the University of Alabama and worked as a drama instructor at West End High School. He began teaching English at ASFA in 1974 and was promoted to director of curriculum and instruction in 1997.

Marsh also volunteered with the Birmingham Actors' Studio under Bill Ozier and, in 1972, joined with Carl Stewart and Vic Fichtner to found the Birmingham Festival Theatre. In 2002 he co-founded the Little Theatre Players.

Several of Marsh's plays have been staged locally, including the Birmingham Children's Theater production of "The Reluctant Dragon."
