Fawn Mckay

Fawn McKay Brodie was born in Ogden Utah on September 15 1915. Fawn MacKay, born into the Mormon Church's original family, used her astonishing abilities as a writer and her formidable research skills in order to create the psycho-historical biographies of Joseph Smith. The book The book, The book, No Man has a clue about My History was published in 1945. This title was inspired by the funeral sermon delivered by Joseph Smith who was the founding father of the Church of Latter-Day Saints. The preacher shocked the audience when he said telling his audience: "You don't even know my name. It's been a long time since you've seen the depths of my soul." Nobody has been told about my story. I can't tell. Fawn (29 an age) wrote that since her moment of candor the three hundred and thirty writers have stood up to the event. Many have abused him some have deified him; Some have tried their hands at diagnosing him. The problem isn't just that the documents do not exist, but 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 as well as non Mormon narratives together into a reliable mosaic isn't an easy task. It is both interesting and instructive. FawnBrodie took on this professional challenge. The fruits of her research and writing made her immortalized with world-wide fame: Thaddeus Stevens. The Devil's Drive (1959) The Southern Scourge. The Story of Sir Richard Burton (1967) Thomas Jefferson. The intimate Histories (1974), and Richard Nixon.
