Fawn Mckay

Fawn McCay Brodie was was born in Ogden Utah September 15, 1915. She was a member of the Mormon Church's original family Fawn McKay was able to direct her innovative creative writing skills and impressive abilities in research to create an outstanding psycho-historical biographical biography of Joseph Smith, published in 1945, entitled The Only Man knows My History. This title was inspired by the funeral sermon of Joseph Smith who was the founder of The Church of Latter-Day Saints. He shocked his audience by saying: "You don't even know my name. You have never known my feelings." Nobody knows my past. Nobody knows my story. Fawn has written the 29-year-old Fawn. Since then there have been at least three writers who have stood up to this challenge. Some have rebuked him, while others have deified. A few have even made the diagnosis. Not that the documents are not there, but that they are so contradictory. It is a matter of separating personal testimony from third party inconsistencies and integrating Mormon-related narratives into a coherent theology. This is both exciting and instructive. FawnBrodie embraced this professional challenge. Thaddeus Stevens. Stevens is immortalized in her writing and by the results of her studies. The Devil Drives (1959) Scourge of the South Thomas Jefferson. Richard Nixon and An Intimate Historical History (1974).
