Marcel was born in Paris, an only child to Henri-Camille "Henry" Marcel, a French diplomat, and Laure Meyer, a Jew and daughter of a banker. Laure died when Marcel was four, and he went on to be raised by his father and Berthe, his aunt and the sister of Laure; Henry would later marry Berthe. Henry, who was raised a Catholic but stopped practicing the faith in favour of agnosticism, raised Marcel without any religious upbringing.
Marcel excelled in his studies, especially when philosophy was involved, and enrolled at the Sorbonne in 1907. There, he completed his diplôme d'études supérieures (roughly the equivalent of an MA thesis) and obtained the agrégation in philosophy from the Sorbonne in 1910, at the unusually young age of 20. Afterwards, he taught philosophy intermittently in Sens, Paris, and Montpellier, but his main professional occupations were that of a drama critic and editor.
