Harold Gordon Hillam (born September 1, 1934) has been a general authority of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) since 1990. Hillam was the fifteenth general president of the LDS Church's Sunday School organization from 1995 to 2000 and was the president of the Boise Idaho Temple from 2005 to 2008.

Hillam was born in Sugar City, Idaho. As a young man, he was a LDS Church missionary in Brazil. Hillam was trained as a dentist and an orthodontist at Northwestern University.

In 1981, Hillam was asked to become the president of the Portugal Lisbon Mission of the LDS Church. In 1990, he became a member of the Second Quorum of the Seventy, and in 1991 he was transferred to the First Quorum of the Seventy. Hillam became a member of the seven-man Presidency of the Seventy in 1995; while in this position, Hillam was the general president of the Sunday School organization. Hillam was released from the Presidency of the Seventy and as general Sunday School president in 2000, but continued as a general authority of the church until 2005, when he was granted emeritus status and asked to be the president of the Boise Idaho Temple of the church.[1] He was released as temple president in 2008, when he was succeeded by President Wenden W. Waite.

Hillam is married to Carol Rasmussen and is the father of seven children.
