Sabin Howard is a classical figurative sculptor based in New York City.[1] 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.[2][3][4][5] Howard is the creator of heroic pieces Hermes, Aphrodite, and Apollo, as well as many smaller pieces.[6][7] His works are owned by private collectors and museums including The Mount, Edith Wharton's home.[8][9]

Art critic James Cooper wrote in 2012, "Howard’s sculptures have content as well as exquisite form".[10] The Epoch Times wrote that “Entering Sabin Howard’s studio in the Bronx is a unique experience.” [11]

Howard is the author of the book The Art Of Life with his wife novelist Traci L. Slatton.[12] 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 (Washington, D.C.).[13]
