Michael Davidson est l’auteur de huit recueils de poésie, dont récemment The Arcades (O Books, 1998). Avec Lyn Hejinian, Barrett Watten et Ron Silliman, il est le co-auteur de Leningrad: American Writers in the Soviet Union (Mercury House Press, 1991). Professeur de littérature à l’Université de Californie à San Diego, il a également été le premier conservateur de la Mandeville Special Collections Library (UCSD) qui a acquis les archives de nombreux poètes américains. On lui doit la nouvelle édition des poèmes de George Oppen (The New Collected Poems of George Oppen, New Directions, 2002). Egalement critique, il a consacré des ouvrages à la poésie américaine moderne et contemporaine et poursuit depuis quelques années une réflexion sur le handicap. Il est ainsi l’auteur de The San Francisco Renaissance: Poetics and Community at Mid-Century (Cambridge U Press, 1989), Ghostlier Demarcations: Modern Poetry and the Material Word (U of California Press, 1997), Guys Like Us: Citing Masculinity in Cold War Poetics (U of Chicago, 2003), et de Concerto for the Left Hand: Disability and the Defamiliar Body (University of Michigan Press, à paraître).

With Lyn Hejinian, Barrett Watten, and Ron Silliman, he is the co-author of Leningrad: American Writers in the Soviet Union (Mercury House Press, 1991). A professor of literature at the University of California, San Diego, with areas of study and research in Modern Poetry, Cultural Studies, Gender Studies, and Disability Studies, he also served as the first curator of the Mandeville Department of Special Collections (UCSD) which holds the archives of several Objectivist poets, Black Mountain poets, the San Francisco Renaissance, the New York School, and the Language School. In addition to being a widely published poet and poetry editor, Davidson is known for insightful literary criticism, his work in disability studies, and for the meticulous editing of the monumental George Oppen: New Collected Poems: this in which Davidson shares in the integrity of his subject. He is the author of The San Francisco Renaissance: Poetics and Community at Mid-Century (Cambridge UP, 1989), Ghostlier Demarcations: Modern Poetry and the Material Word (U of California, 1997), and Guys Like Us: Citing Masculinity in Cold War Poetics (U of Chicago, 2003).
