He is a poet, an applied anthropologist, a psychoanalytic anthropologist, medical anthropologist, an organizational anthropologist, and psychohistorian.

In 2021 he was nominated for Oklahoma Poet Laureate, and is currently Poet Laureate of the High Plains Society for Applied Anthropology. He also greatly enjoys "facilitating" organizational groups as part of his consulting activities. Between 2012-2017, he served as group process facilitator with the American Indian Diabetes Prevention Center in Oklahoma City. In late 2015 he published a book of stories from organizational life with Dr. Seth Allcorn (senior author). The book is titled The Dysfunctional Workplace, published by the University of Missouri Press. In 2017 he also published the Second Edition of his 1994 book, Listening Deeply, with the University of Missouri Press. In late 2016 he published a book of poetry, Light and Shadow, published by Doodle and Peck Publishing, Yukon, Oklahoma; and in 2018 he published a new book of poetry, Centre and Circumference, published by MindMend Publishing, New York. In 2020, he co-authored a book with his long-time friend and co-author Seth Allcorn, The Psychodynamics of Toxic Organizations: Applied Poems, Stories, and Analysis, published by Routledge. Although officially "retired," he continues to write essays, chapters, books, and poetry. Trained originally in historical musicology, Stein spends a lot of time listening to classical music. Stein also loves to sit outside on his little front porch among the blackjack and scrub oak trees. He can be reached at howard-stein@ouhsc.edu. or 405-226-2484
