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]
