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 writing talents as well as her remarkable research skills to creating an outstanding psycho-historical biographical biography of Joseph Smith, published in 1945, entitled No Man Knows My History. The name was taken from the sermon title that Joseph Smith delivered in 1844. He amazed his audience with the statement: You are not my friend and you've never listened to my heart. My story is not known to anyone. No one knows my history. Fawn (29 years old) wrote that after her confessional moment Three hundred writers have responded to the occasion. Many have mocked and denigrated his character, whereas others attempt to identify the cause. The problem isn't the case that there's not enough documentation however they're wildly divergent. It is a matter of separating first-hand testimony from third hand fraud and then blending Mormon and non-Mormon narratives into a coherent historical facts. The task is fascinating and educational. It's a task which Fawn Brodie devoted herself professionally. Her work in research and writing brought her fame around the world: Thaddeus Stephens. The Devil drives (1959). The Story of Sir Richard Burton (1967) Thomas Jefferson. The Intimate Histories (1974) The Life of Sir Richard Burton (1974) and Richard Nixon.
