Rachel is drawn, strangely, to a naturalist (7,6)
I believe the answer is:
charles darwin
'a naturalist' is the definition.
(Charles Darwin is an example)
'rachel is drawn strangely' is the wordplay.
'strangely' indicates an anagram.
'rachel'+'is'+'drawn'='rachelisdrawn'
'rachelisdrawn' anagrammed gives 'CHARLES DARWIN'.
'to' is the link.
(Other definitions for charles darwin that I've seen before include "Great Victorian" , "Naturalist on HMS Beagle" , "Author of The Descent of Man" .)
