You're probably thinking of Rutter who founded The American Chestnut Foundation that has been working at cross-breeding American Chestnuts with the Chineses Chestnuts to get a blight resistant strain.

Hmmm, that may well be what I heard, but I thought there was a guy who
had been working on it for years. Maybe I heard about more than one
guy. I hate this aging business -- used to have a mind like a steel
trap, and one I had a datum I could remember where I got it and when,
even.

Thankfully we have a replacement for old people's brains: Google. I
have saved myself from total riducule by checking Google before I
assert much of anything.
