There truly was no one quite like naturalist Charles Darwin. Unlike some other headline-grabbing contemporaries of his time, Darwin still remains not only relevant, but controversial. A creationist museum just opened in Kentucky, its organizers compelled to counter Darwin’s assertions with their own (that the earth was created in seven days and is only a couple thousand years old).
Darwin is still a hot ticket. And no one knows that better than Thomas Skwerski, the Field Museum’s exhibit project manager, who today unveils the museum’s latest exhibit on all things Darwin.
