Some of my best memories growing up in Decorah and at Luther College involve Professor Richard Simon Hanson.   He needs no introduction to Luther and Decorah people.   He is a Professor Emeritus of Religion at Luther College in Iowa, specializing in ancient languages, the Bible, and Judaism.  

We cover growing up Wisconsin, how he got to Luther, why he left Luther, who invited him back, his connection to Weston Noble in the early 1950's, his role with the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Lord's Prayer in Greek, Elie Wiesel, Leonardo Da Vinci, and Victor Frankl's "Man's Search for Meaning".   I learned a ton about this legendary Luther College professor.  

Whoa, this one was fun to do.  It was a total honor to interview one of my life long heroes.
