Dr. Barton Rubenstein is a former neuroscientist and sleep researcher. He conducted research and completed his PhD at the Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel, publishing numerous scientific papers including in the Journal of Science. Rubenstein's research has also been cited in Scientific American and his sleep research has been shown as video content on American Airlines flights. Rubenstein has been a sculptor and public artist for the last 30 years, having completed over 100 commissions worldwide. His portfolio includes the biennially presented Portrait of a Nation Award for the Smithsonian Institution, awarded to Americans who have made a substantial contribution to our nation, including past recipients Aretha Franklin, Maya Lin, Hank Aaron, Earth Wind and Fire, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Spike Lee, Serena and Venus Williams, Dr. Anthony Fauci, and Madeleine Albright. Rubenstein creates large-scale water and wind kinetic sculptures for public and private spaces including universities, cities and residences, including the official residence of the Vice President of the United States. Rubenstein's tallest piece is a 30' high sculpture, "Skybound," in front of the Cincinnati Art Museum. In 2005-2007, Rubenstein was invited to be a member of a National Academy of Sciences Committee to redesign the $100 bill. His recommendation to include a blue ribbon to avert counterfeiting was subsequently introduced into the new design at the Bureau of Printing and Engraving. In 2015, Rubenstein's family cofounded the Mother Earth Project. The physical footprint of his family's project is the Mother Earth Sculpture, a monumental 15' high sculpture that Rubenstein designed with the likeness of the human profile, namely his mother, the subject and inspiration of his memoir. It is now in countries worldwide, including Washington, DC, Jerusalem, Israel, Guilin, China, Jaipur, India, Yaoundé, Cameroon, Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Bonn, Germany.
