Eli, born mute and with little control of his muscles, began relaying thoughtful poems on family, politics, and life as an adult. His mother, the poet Louise Grassi Whitney, transcribed the words from a spelling board to handwriting. Eli Whitney is now in his late 30s and living in a group home in San Rafael, California.
