He was an early president from 1950–1972 and later chairman of the board from 1972–1976 of the luxury retailer Neiman Marcus in Dallas, Texas. His father and aunt founded Neiman Marcus in 1907. During his tenure at the company, he also became a published author, writing his memoir Minding the Store and also a regular column in The Dallas Morning News. After Neiman Marcus was sold to Carter Hawley Hale Stores, Marcus initially remained in an advisory capacity to that company, but later began his own consulting business, which continued until his death.

He received the Chevalier Award from the French Legion of Honor, and was named by Harvard Business School among the greatest American Business Leaders of the 20th century.
