Friends and colleagues: The African origin of humanity clearly is a subject
of profound interest. What better way to explore this topic than through
the eyes of the latest generation of the renowned Leakey family? We did
just that in Exploring Human Origins: An interview with Louise Leakey, the
latest video feature on our nonprofit streaming-media Web site, The
Archaeology Channel (http://www.archaeologychannel.org/).
In this interview, conducted on May 1, 2007, by Rick Pettigrew of ALI, Dr.
Louise Leakey discusses the subject of human origins and her life as a
paleoanthropologist. Dr. Leakey, who grew up in Kenya as the daughter of
paleoanthropologists Richard and Meave Leakey, was the Keynote Speaker for
the 2007 edition of The Archaeology Channel International Film and Video
Festival, hosted by ALI in Eugene, Oregon. On the day of her address to the
Festival, she and Dr. Pettigrew paused in the lobby of the Hilton Eugene
Hotel to have a conversation on her favorite subject. The discussion
included both personal reflections on her life as a Leakey and issues of
human evolution and its relevance to people today. With remarkable candor
and warm personality, Dr. Leakey demonstrates that exploring the deep human
past is much more than a purely academic subject.
