Fawn Mckay

Fawn McKay Brodie was born in Ogden Utah on September 15 1915. She was a member of the Mormon Church's very first family, Fawn McKay was able to direct her innovative creative writing skills and impressive abilities in research to create the brilliant psycho-historical biography of Joseph Smith, published in 1945 under the title The Only Man Knows My History. The title was an inspiration for a funeral sermon that was delivered by the Church of Latter-Day Saints founder Joseph Smith. The sermon said: "You do not know the person I am, and have never met my soul." My past is not known to anyone. I'm not able to tell my story. Fawn 29, a woman of 29 years old, wrote: "Since that moment of candor, at least three writers have risen to the challenge." Some have deified and abused his character, whereas others attempt to identify the cause. The problem isn't because there's not enough evidence but they're rather contradictory. The task of assembling the papers -and separate the firsthand accounts from thirdhand plagiarism, and finally, to put Mormon as well as non Mormon accounts together into an authentic mosaic, is not an simple task. I find it both fascinating as well as eye-opening. FawnBrodie embraced this professional task with enthusiasm and energy. The results of her study and writing immortalized her with the world's attention: Thaddeus Stevens. The Devil drives (1959). Thomas Jefferson. The Intimate Histories (1974) The Life of Sir Richard Burton (1974) and Richard Nixon.
