Cyrus Dallin

I went to a lecture today, "Iconic Mormon Sculpture: Cyrus Dallin and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" held at Arlington Town Hall, given by Richard Turley, an assistant historian for the Church.  Cyrus Dallin was the sculptor of the Angel Moroni on the Salt Lake Temple (and the Boston Temple).  The talk was fantastic.  Our ward provided cookies and our bishop hosted a dinner afterwards for the speaker, members of the Cyrus Dallin Museum Board, members of Cyrus Dallin's family, and a some local Mormons.
