Tim O’Shea on Remembering Daniel Robert Epstein
posted June 14, 2007
 

First off, my condolences to the family and friends of Daniel Robert Epstein.

There are few interviewers I respected more. And I wish I had told him that directly. I know I mentioned it to other people, but never to him.

We were not friends or associates, per se. But make no mistake I always respected his work.

He was one of those people that makes me try harder when doing interviews. I will continue to try harder. He found creators off the beaten track and he made the industry better through his efforts (and more importantly informed its vital consumers immensely) .

He made a difference and I wish for his family that he was still here. I imagine as much as he added to this industry, he enriched the lives of his loved ones even more.

Thank you, Daniel.
