Fawn Mckay

Fawn McCay Brodie was born in Ogden Utah September 15, 1915. Fawn was a part of the Mormon Church's oldest family, was able to combine her literary talents and exceptional research abilities into an outstanding biography of Joseph Smith. No Man knew My History appeared in 1945. This title is taken from the funeral sermon of Joseph Smith who was the creator of the Church of Latter-Day Saints. His audience was shocked by his telling his audience: "You don't even know my name. It's been a long time since you've seen my feelings." No one knows about my past. It's impossible to tell. Fawn, a 29-year-old woman wrote: "Since that moment of honesty at least three scores writers have risen to the challenge." These documents are not lacking, they just contradict each with respect to each other. To assemble the documents -- to separate first hand sources from a third-party plagiarism and then fit Mormon and non Mormon stories together to form an authentic mosaic, is not an difficult job. I find it both fascinating and eye-opening. FawnBrodie embraced this professional task with enthusiasm and energy. Thaddeus Steves became a global celebrity as a result of her work in research as well as her work. The Devil Drives (1959) Scourge of the South The life of Sir Richard Burton (1967) Thomas Jefferson. A Personal Historical Document (1974) and posthumously Richard Nixon.
