The bolometric luminosities of high-redshift submillimeter-selected ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) are dominated by thermal emission from dust at infrared wavelengths. In order to properly understand the distribution of dust within such high-redshift ULIRGs, and to determine the luminosity function of the population as a whole, we therefore must acquire a sampling of their complete infrared spectral energy distributions (SEDs). Here, we present MIPS 70 and 160 micron and SHARC-II 350 micron images of a sample of high-redshift submillimeter-selected ULIRGs located behind lensing clusters of galaxies. We use this data, in combination with deep SCUBA 850 micron images, to construct rest-frame mid-infrared to submillimeter SEDs.
