This chapter describes the involvement of Harold I. Hansen in producing the Hill Cumorah Pageant. It begins with his appointment to direct the pageant as a missionary in 1937, his return to directing it after being released, and his role in shifting the pageant from a missionary effort to a full-scale church production. The chapter illustrates Hansen's experience including the sacrifices he made and the obstacles he overcame until his formal release in 1977.
