Fawn Mckay
Fawn Brodie McKay was born September 15, 1915 was raised in Ogden Utah. She was a member of the Mormon Church's original family Fawn McKay devoted her brilliant creative writing skills and impressive research skills to creating the brilliant psycho-historical biography of Joseph Smith, published in 1945. The book was titled No Man knows My History. The title came from a funeral speech delivered by the founding father of the Church of Latter-Day Saints in 1844, when he shocked his listeners by declaring"You don't know me" and you've never known my heart. My life story isn't known to any one. In reality I'm not even sure. Fawn, 29 years old, wrote Fawn has taken his place as a writer from that point on. These documents are not lacking however they contradict each other. Compiling these documents - - sorting through third- and first-hand sources, fitting Mormons' narratives to other people's history - is challenging. This is fascinating and an eye-opener. Fawn Brodie's professional life was committed to this cause. Thaddeus S. Stevens is immortalized in her works and the fruit of her studies. Scourge of the South (1959) The Devil Drives. Thomas Jefferson. A Personal History (1974) and posthumously Richard Nixon.
