Fawn Mckay
Fawn McKay Brodie was born in Ogden Utah on September 15 1915. Fawn, a member of the Mormon church's most prestigious family, was able to combine her literary expertise and impressive research skills into an outstanding biography of Joseph Smith. No Man Knew My History appeared in 1945. This title is taken from the funeral sermon given by Joseph Smith, the founding father of the Church of Latter-Day Saints. His audience was shocked by his telling his audience: "You don't even know my name. There is no way to know my heart." My life story isn't known to anybody. Nobody knows my story. Fawn aged 29 has written. Fawn took on the mantle of writing from that point on. A lot of them have denigrated him and some have deified him; some have even experimented with clinical diagnosis it is not that documents are lacking the issue is that they are fiercely contradictory. The task of assembling these documents--of sifting first-hand account from third-party plagiarism and integrating Mormon and non-Mormon accounts into a mosaic that makes plausible the history. It is fascinating and informative. FawnBrodie took on this professional project with gusto and enthusiasm. Her research and writings brought her fame around all over the globe: Thaddeus Stephens. "The Devil's Drive" (1959) The Scourge of South. Thomas Jefferson. An Intimate Historiography (1974) as well as posthumously Richard Nixon.
