Eugenie C. Scott (b. 1945), a resident of Berkeley, California, is president of the Bay Area Skeptics organization and serves as the executive director of the National Center for Science Education. Scott received a BS and MS from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, followed by a PhD from the University of Missouri. She formerly taught as a physical anthropologist at the University of Kentucky, the University of Colorado, and at California State University, Hayward. She was also a board member of the now defunct International Society of Cryptozoology. Scott is best known for her decades-long opposition to allowing creationism or other alternatives to standard evolutionary theory to be taught in public schools.
On January 13, 2009, the Ask a Scientist lecture series featured Scott speaking on Bigfoot and Other Wild Men of the Forest. In her presentation she attempts to debunk claims regarding the existence of an undocumented primate species in North America.
