Like ULIRGs, Hyperluminous Infrared Galaxies (HLIRGs) appear to have emission components from both AGN and Starburst activity. Because many HLIRGs are at z > 0.75, use of common optical spectral diagnostics is difficult, and as a result, most analysis has been done using submm data. I will present the first rest frame optical spectra of HLIRGs in this poster. With this data taken at UKIRT, I will present a preliminary analysis of the spectral contributions by AGN and Starburst activity within these galaxies.
