Rethinking Evolution in the Museum explores the ways diverse natural history museum audiences imagine their evolutionary heritage. In particular, the book considers how the meanings constructed by audiences of museum exhibitions are a product of dynamic interplay between museum iconography and powerful images museum visitors bring with them to the museum. In doing so, the book illustrates how the preconceived images held by museum audiences about anthropology, Africa, and the museum itself strongly impact the human origins exhibition experience. Although museological theory has come increasingly to recognize that museum audiences 'make meaning' in exhibitions, or make their own complex interpretations of museum exhibitions, few scholars have explicitly asked how. Rethinking Evolution in the Museum, however, provides a rare window into visitor perceptions at four world-class museums—the Natural History Museum and Horniman Museum in London, the National Museums of Kenya in Nairobi and the American Museum of Natural History in New York. Through rigorous and novel mixed methods (quantitative and qualitative) covering nearly 500 museum visitors, this innovative study shows that audiences of human origins exhibitions interpret evolution exhibitions through a profoundly complex convergence of personal, political, intellectual, emotional and cultural interpretive strategies. This book also reveals that natural history museum visitors often respond to museum exhibitions similarly because they use common cultural tools picked up from globalized popular media circulating outside of the museum. One tool of particular interest is the notion that human evolution has proceeded linearly from a bestial African prehistory to a civilized European present. Despite critical growths in anthropological science and museum displays, the outdated Victorian progress motif lingers persistently in popular media and the popular imagination. Rethinking Evolution in the Museum sheds light on our relationship with natural history museums and will be crucial to those people interested in understanding the connection between the visitor, the museum and media culture outside of the museum context.

This master's project reviews and analyses the development of three natural history museum exhibitions about the history and evolution of life on Earth: Prehistoric Journey at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science, Life Over Time at the Field Museum of Natural History, and Life Through Time at the California Academy of Sciences. This study focuses on team processes of the three exhibit teams that developed these exhibitions. It concentrates particularly on the major decisions made by each exhibit team's leaders so as to show how the appearance of an exhibition depends, in part, upon the type of team leadership that is assembled to develop it. Based on my findings from three museum site visits and interviews with the staff who developed these exhibitions, this master's project illustrates how different institutional motivations for developing these exhibitions and the different types of exhibit team leadership that resulted from these institutional priorities led to unique types of exhibitions. The study also documents the ways that unforeseen events and the personal agendas of each team's leaders affected the results of the team processes. The recommendations of this study are addressed to exhibit planners developing large-scale exhibitions, particularly at natural history museums.
