Google Earth offers an address import feature as part of its “pro” application, which is currently only available for Windows. However, there are a number of tools out there that will perform this conversion for free and produce a KML file, which you can import into Google Earth or other mapping applications. One such tool is BatchGeoCode. It is completely web-based, uses an easy Excel template (provided), and gives you the option to download the finished KML file. The only limitation is a 100-address limit for the conversion.
For fun, I mapped the addresses of the University High School and Catlin Gabel Faculty and saved the images from the same altitude (29 miles).

Your site was the first to come up on my search to find out about this capability and I just wanted to say thank you for sharing!
Richard — My head asked me to do an analysis of where faculty lived and as I was trying to import the data into Google Earth, I happen upon this link — very nice. Third hit in google when I searched for import address data into google earth.
Thanks!
Alex,
Happy to be of help, even nearly two years ago!
