Alex Strother Marshall ’86

Marshall, a financial analyst and avid sailor and golfer, died Jan. 30, 2022.

After graduating with a degree in economics, Marshall started a career as a financial analyst exploring a wide range of industries, but often concentrating on the energy and building trades. He remained intensely curious about all aspects of capital allocation and worked for both investment firms and funds on both the buy and sell side. Along the way, he earned an MBA from the University of Texas and was named a Wall Street Journal all-star for his fundraising.

At Princeton, Marshall was a member of Cottage Club and the Sailing Team. After graduation, he developed an intense interest in golf, which reflected his devotion to precision and focus.

The class of 1986 extends our deepest sympathies to his wife, Anne Colberg Marshall; and their two children, Taylor and Blake.
