Richard Dawkins Interviews Creationist Wendy Wright. Wendy Wright is the current president and CEO of Concerned Women for America, a Conservative Christian political action group active in the United States. She joined the organization in 1999 and served as its executive vice president before being named president on January 30, 2006. Wright was listed as one of “The 100 Most Powerful Women of Washington” in 2006 by Washingtonian magazine.Wright is a frequent spokesperson for conservative causes, including pro-life and international issues.

Wright was interviewed by evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins for his 2008 program “The Genius of Charles Darwin,” in the episode entitled “God Strikes Back”. In the interview, she repeats the creationist argument that no transitional forms have been found between different animal groups, (naming specifically birds and mammals, although biologists do not claim that mammals are descended from birds). Dawkins named several and asked her to visit any museum to see the evidence, but she held to her view that they were mostly illustrations and things that don’t exist. Although the interview was edited for the program, the complete interview is available online.
