Sabin Howard is a classical figurative sculptor based in New York City,[2] with a studio in the Bronx.[3] He is a board member of the National Sculpture Society. His work has been shown at numerous solo and group shows. He is the sculptor for a project entitled "The Weight of Sacrifice" that is one of five finalists for the World War I Memorial in Pershing Park, Washington D.C.[4][5][6][7] His notable works include the recent National WWI Memorial sculpture. [8][9] Howard is the creator of the large-scale pieces Hermes, Aphrodite, and Apollo, as well as many smaller pieces.[10][11] His works are owned by private collectors and museums including The Mount, Edith Wharton's home.[12][13]

Art critic James Cooper wrote in 2012: "Howard’s sculptures have content as well as exquisite form".[14] The Epoch Times wrote that “Entering Sabin Howard’s studio in the Bronx is a unique experience.”[15]

Howard co-wrote a book called The Art Of Life with his novelist wife Traci L. Slatton.[16] As part of a team put together by a young architect, Joseph Weishaar, Sabin was selected to create the sculpture at the National World War I Memorial in Washington D.C.[17]
