After Metres received a B.A. magna cum laude from Holy Cross College, he went on to earn an M.A. (English), M.F.A. (poetry) and Ph.D. (English) at Indiana University at Bloomington.

Metres blogs frequently and teaches issues related to nonviolent resistance to war and racism in the United States, Middle East, and Northern Ireland.[10][11] Of Lebanese descent on his father's side, Metres plays a role in the Arab-American literary scene. Metres currently resides in Cleveland, Ohio with his wife, the award-winning writer Amy Breau, and their two daughters.
