Fawn Mckay
Fawn MCK Brodie was born on September 15th, 1915 at Ogden Utah. Fawn MCKAY, who was raised in the Mormon Church's First Family, employed her creative talents and expertise in research to write the intriguing biographical psycho-historical study of Joseph Smith. Published in 1945 with the title: No Man is a Master of My History, she used both. This title comes from a funeral sermon delivered by the Church of Latter-Day Saints' founder. My history is not known to anyone. There is no way for me to tell you. Wrote the 29-year old Fawn in this moment of honesty, at least three-score writers have jumped on the challenge. Many have mocked and denigrated the man, and others have attempted to diagnose the cause. It isn't because there's not enough evidence but rather they are wildly inconsistent. It is a difficult job to find these records and separate first-hand stories from copies that are third-hand and integrating Mormon narratives with non-Mormon ones into a coherent mosaic. This is both exciting, as well as instructive. Fawn Brodie's professional life was committed to this cause. Thaddeus Stevens. Stevens is immortalized in her work and the fruits of her study. The Devil drives (1959). Thomas Jefferson. The Intimate Histories (1974), and Richard Nixon.
