LOUIS CABRI teaches contemporary poetry and poetics and critical theory at the University of Windsor. He has published widely on Bruce Andrews, Peter Inman, Frank O'Hara, Catriona Strang, Fred Wah, Ezra Pound, and Zukofsky, poetry's "social command", and the literary nonce-word. Current projects include a study of Louis Zukofsky and the Language Poets, a collection of essays on contemporary poetics, and
anthologizing a poets-in-dialogue series he edited and curated (PhillyTalks, 1997-2001). Cabri's poetry book The Mood Embosser (Coach House Books, 2003) was acclaimed as a 2003 Book of the Year by the Small Press Traffic Literary Arts Center (San Francisco).
