DVD entitled: Dad (includes chapters: Pacemaker, Circles for dots, Patriarch).

This book offers a look at each of Epstein's major projects: 'Common Practice' (1973-89); 'Vietnam' (1992-95); 'The City' (1995-98); 'Family Business' (2000-03), and his current, ongoing 'American Power.' His early work on the theme of recreation is given its most natural yet unexpected configuration: images from the United States are mixed with those from other parts of the world.
