Ken Ham

Kenneth Alfred Ham (1951–present). Born on October 20, 1951, in Cairns, Queensland, Australia, to Mervyn and Ailsa Ham, Ken Ham is a Christian apologist, evangelist, and founder of Answers in Genesis (AiG), a ministry promoting young Earth creationism. Raised in a devout family—his father a school principal—he earned a bachelor’s degree in applied science (environmental biology) from Queensland Institute of Technology and a Diploma in Education from the University of Queensland. Influenced by The Genesis Flood (1961) by John Whitcomb and Henry Morris, he taught science in Australian public schools from 1975, rejecting evolution for a literal Genesis. In 1979, he co-founded the Creation Science Foundation (now Creation Ministries International), moving to the U.S. in 1987 to join the Institute for Creation Research. Ham established AiG in 1994, opening the Creation Museum in Petersburg, Kentucky, in 2007 and the Ark Encounter, a life-size Noah’s Ark replica, in 2016. His “Back to Genesis” lectures argue that biblical literalism counters cultural decay, authoring over 30 books, including The Lie: Evolution (1987) and Creation to Babel (2021). A radio host on Answers with Ken Ham and speaker at conferences, he debated Bill Nye in 2014, drawing global attention. Married to Marilyn (“Mally”) since 1972, he has five children and 17 grandchildren, living in Kentucky. Ham said, “The Bible is the Word of God, and its history in Genesis is the foundation for all doctrine.”
