I don't recall such an interview. However, there is this:

Press Club/20 October 1999

J.K. Rowling Interview Transcript

SB: We're going to take a few more questions, and um, the next
one is 
will Harry ever turn into a shape-changer like his father?

JKR: Animagus. No, Harry's not in training to be an animagus, and
if 
you've read book three, you won't know – um, that's a
wizard that's 
very, very difficult to do. They learn to turn themselves into 
animals. No, Harry is not, Harry is going to be concentrated 
elsewhere, he's not going to have time to do that. He's got
quite a 
full agenda coming up, poor boy.~~

Just think what Harry might learn if he could transform into... 
Snape. ;-)
