James Joseph Marshall (February 3, 1936 – March 24, 2010)[1] was an American photographer and photojournalist who photographed musicians of the 1960s and 1970s.[2][3][4] Earning the trust of his subjects, he had extended access to them both on and off-stage. Marshall was the official photographer for the Beatles' final concert in San Francisco's Candlestick Park, and he was head photographer at Woodstock.[5]
