Dimick Baker Huntington (May 26, 1808 – February 1, 1879) was a leading Indian interpreter in early Utah Territory. He commissioned a 22-foot-long missionary panorama of C. C. A. Christensen to use in his presentations of the gospel to the Native Americans in 1871.[1] [2] That missionary panorama is housed in the Church History Museum of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
