    Chairman's Corner by Dan Vigesaa, Chairman, NDAC The North Dakota Aviation Council enjoyed an other successful symposium in spite of the blizzard conditions that prevented many from the eastern part of the state from attending. We had some exciting and spirited presenta­ tions. All of us felt moved and rewarded to be there when the North Dakota Hall of Fame was inaugurated. All the members of the Council would like to thank you personally for joining one of the organizations that help make this kind of sym­ posium possible here in North Dakota. I am the lucky one.

Christensen became active in professional theater and music early in her life, co-hosting a daily television show at age 12 and playing with the Musicians’ Union at age 14. She proceeded to gain extensive experience producing and directing summer theatres, performing groups, and trade shows, as well as directing a television series and a large outdoor pageant featuring members of the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra. As an artistic director of Living Legends and a producer for Young Ambassadors, both performing groups at BYU, she has traveled around the world, bringing uplifting family entertainment to millions through live and televised productions. Under Christensen’s direction, Living Legends has toured and performed throughout Europe, China, the Pacific Islands, Australia, Canada, Central and South America, South Africa, and the United States. Christensen hopes that through their travels, members of Living Legends will inspire people of all cultures to take pride in their own unique heritage. “It is a moving experience to work with these performers because I see the sincere respect they each hold for one another’s ancestry as well as their own,” Christensen said.
