I am a German citizen and just married an American citizen, presently we live in the British Virgin Islands. We are considering moving to a European country (e.g., Luxembourg) other than Germany. Is my American husband automatically entitled to work and live in the EU because he is married to a German?

I believe so. I knew an American girl in Ireland who married a Russian. They were both working in Dublin.

The answer above me is wrong. Russia is not member of the European Union. So this Russian must have a visa to work in Ireland. To answer your question can you work in anywhere in the EU. The answer is no. In some countries you have to have for example a green card to work. Remember if you because a German citizen then you can work where ever you like. Just because you are married to someone who country is a member of the EU doesn't mean you have the right to work in other EU countries

O of course!!! you just have to become a legal citizen of Germany and then yu can get any job you want and since you are from america you will probably get some respect from employers! If you went to a good college and kept up your grades you will get the job of your dreams even if you are in a different place and if you can also speak German... that is awesome! Employers love a bi-lingual lady working for them! good luck in Germany!!! and it really doesnt matter where you go in the European area just you have to be bi-lingual even if your in Italt and you only know German and English... they still respect that because since we are one of the richest country in the world they know they will get more buisness!

The answerer above me got it wrong. Only EU citizens are entitled to work anywhere in the EU. It may be easier for your husband to become German, because you are married, but that's it. Once he is German, no problem. Until then the rules of the respective country you are considering apply.
