Born and raised in Niagara Falls, Ontario, he was educated at Queen's University in Kingston. He received his MA in 1965, writing his thesis on poet A. M. Klein, and taught at the institution from 1964 until his death.

Marshall was the author of numerous poetry collections and novels, the poetry editor of Canadian Forum and the chief editor of Quarry.

At the time of his death in 1993, Marshall had completed a final novel, The Adventures of John Montgomery. The novel was posthumously published in 1995, and was reissued in 2014 as part of a series of historical novels set in Kingston. The Essential Tom Marshall, an anthology of his poetry compiled by David Helwig and Michael Ondaatje, was published in 2012.
