The only guy I can think of is Kent Hovind, but I think he's from the eightees. He never was a researcher, although he pretended to be one. He calls himself "Dr. Dino", although he's got no degree in the natural sciences at all. He's only got a "degree" in "Christian Education" from some Bible College in the desert, where he bought his "degree" from. He still writes from gaol, where he ended up for tax evasion. He made millions from naive religious folks while pretending to be a "researcher".

Re: Stephen Jay Gould?
Except that Gould never questioned the Theory of Evolution, but actually supported it very vocally. So, it couldn't have been him. However, if you read creationist quote-mines, it seems as if Gould was a creationist.
