Fawn Mckay

Fawn MCK Brodie was born on September 15th, 1915 at Ogden Utah. Fawn MCKAY, born into the Mormon Church's First Family, utilized her writing talent as well as skills in researching to produce the intriguing biographical psycho-historical study of Joseph Smith. Published in 1945 under the title No Man is a Master of My History, she used both. The title came from a funeral sermon given by the founding father of the Church of Latter-Day Saints in 1844 when he startled his listeners by declaring"You don't even know me." you never knew my heart. My history is unknown to any one. I don't know. Fawn (29 years old) stated that in the time after her confessional moment, three-hundred writers have risen to the event. Certain writers have deified and even abused his character, whereas others have attempted to diagnose the problem. The problem isn't because there's not enough evidence however they're wildly contradictory. The task of assembling the papers -- to separate first hand stories from plagiarism by third parties, and finally, to put Mormon and non Mormon stories together to form an authentic mosaic, is not an difficult task. It is both exciting and educational. This is the kind of task to which Fawn Brodie committed herself professionally. The fruits of her research and writing made her immortalized with world-wide fame: Thaddeus Stevens. The DevilDrives. Thomas Jefferson. Richard Nixon, An Intimate history (1974) Posthumous.
