Wendy Wright (activist) How Wendy Wright changed my mother39s life for the better

Wright was interviewed by evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins for his 2008 program The Genius of Charles Darwin, in the episode entitled "God Strikes Back". Dawkins wrote of the exchange in his 2009 book The Greatest Show on Earth: The Evidence for Evolution. In a book review for The Guardian, Wright's dialogue with Dawkins led palaeontologist Richard Fortey to write that "one sympathises with Dawkins's attempt to talk evidence with convinced creationists" and that Wright "would have most rational souls tearing out their hair". Sarah Lyall of The New York Times said "it is as if [Wright] doesn't hear him".
