Mark Barabak’s rather opinionated preface to his interview with Gary Bauer (Opinion, Sept. 13) inaccurately labels Focus on the Family President James C. Dobson as an “evangelist.” Dobson is not an evangelist. He is a best-selling author, child psychologist, national radio broadcaster and founder of an international nonprofit Christian ministry that helps families. He has a PhD from USC in the field of child development. He was for 14 years an associate clinical professor of pediatrics at the USC School of Medicine and served for 17 years on the attending staff of Childrens Hospital of Los Angeles in the division of child development and medical genetics.
