Fawn Mckay
Fawn MCK Brodie was born on the 15th of September 1915 in Ogden Utah. Fawn McKay, brought up in the Mormon Church's First Family employed her creative talents and skills in researching to produce the fascinating psycho-historical biographical biography of Joseph Smith. Published in 1945 under the title No Man Knows My History, she used both. The title was inspired by the title of a sermon that Joseph Smith delivered in 1844. He shocked his hearers with the statement: You do not know me and you've never listened to my thoughts. Nobody has heard of my life. There is no way for me to reveal it. Fawn aged 29 was a writer. Fawn took on the mantle of writing from that point on. There are some who have attempted to establish a medical diagnosis. The documents aren't insufficient however they do have a lot of contradictions. The task of assembling the papers -in order to distinguish first-hand stories from plagiarism by third parties, and to then put Mormon as well as non Mormon accounts together into a reliable mosaic isn't an difficult task. I find it both fascinating and fascinating. It's a task which Fawn Brodie committed herself professionally. The fruits of her research as well as her writing earned her world-wide fame: Thaddeus Stevens. The Devil drives (1959). Thomas Jefferson. A Personal History of Richard Nixon (1974) as also posthumously Richard Nixon.
