Fawn Mckay
Fawn McKay was born on 15 September 1915 in Ogden, Utah. Fawn MacKay, born into the Mormon Church's founding family, utilised her amazing literary skills and impressive researching skills to write the psycho-historical biographies about Joseph Smith. The book The book, No Man has a clue about My History was published in 1945. The title was an inspiration for a funeral sermon given in 1844 by the Church of Latter-Day Saints founder, Joseph Smith. In that sermon he said: "You do not know the person I am, and have never met my soul." No one knows about my past. I don't know. Fawn has written the 29-year-old Fawn. Since that moment there have been at least three writers who have stood up to this challenge. A few people have even attempted to establish a medical diagnosis. Documents are not lacking however they do have a lot of contradictions. This is the task--sifting out first-hand testimony from third hand inconsistencies and integrating Mormon-related narratives into a cohesive mosaic of reliable historical facts. It's both thrilling, and also instructive. Such was the task to which Fawn Brodie committed herself professionally. Her research and writings earned her fame all over the world. Thaddeus Stephens. The Scourge of the South (1959) The Devil Drives. Thomas Jefferson. An intimate Historical Document (1974) as well as posthumously Richard Nixon.
