For an account of Hansen's transformation into a post-"full-throated Keynesian" see 'The Eclipse of the Goal of Zero Inflation' HOPE 1997 Volume 29, Issue 3.

If you don't already know it, D.C. Colander & H. Landreth (eds) (1996) The Coming of Keynesianism to America (Elgar) is a kind of primary source -- a collection of retrospective interviews with founders of Keynesianism in the US, including Hansen in a joint interview with Abba Lerner. And from memory there are many other references to Hansen's role throughout all the interviews in this volume (e.g., from Domar, Samuelson), including comment to the effect that Harvard didn't get exactly what they were expecting when they appointed him!
