Marshall Moxom (1916–2007) was a San Francisco-based photographer active between the late 1930s and mid-1970s. During his tenure with the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (PUC), Moxom frequently worked at San Francisco International Airport (SFO), where he made aerial photographs and documented terminal construction, events, and airport personnel. Today, SFO Museum holds approximately 750 photographic negatives made by Moxom while on assignment at the Airport.
