Summary

Dave Hunter is one of the founders of Halestorm Entertainment and produced films such as The Singles Ward, The RM, The Home Teachers and Church Ball. He is also a very successful entrepreneur and real estate developer. Dave and I talk about lessons learned growing up in a big family, being the grandson of a Prophet, how he met and baptized his wife, being one of the driving forces behind the "Mormon Cinema" movement and how being a member of the church affects it all. Dave is one of the funniest, most open people I know. His energy and love for life is contagious. It is a really fun, uplifting and inspiring episode.
