Fawn Mckay

Fawn Brodie McKay born September 15, 1915 was a native of Ogden Utah. Fawn McCay was born Utah's Ogden in 1915, and was raised by the Mormon church's founding family. Her creative writing talents and exceptional expertise in research to compose the captivating, psychohistorical biography of Joseph Smith. It was released in the year 45 under the heading, "No Man Knows My History". That title was taken from a funeral sermon delivered by the founder of the Church of Latter-Day Saints in 1844 when he startled the congregation with his words"You don't know me" you never knew my heart. My history is unknown to any one. No one knows my history. Fawn has written the 29-year-old Fawn. From that point there have been at least three writers who have risen to the challenge. The documents do not lack, they just contradict each with respect to each other. The task is to sort out first-hand testimony from third hand fraud and then blending Mormon and non-Mormon narratives into a coherent theology. It is both interesting and fascinating. Such was the task to which Fawn Brodie put her professional energy into. Her research and writing made her immortalized with world-wide fame: Thaddeus Stevens. The Devil drives (1959). The life of Sir Richard Burton (1967) Thomas Jefferson. Richard Nixon, An Intimate historiography (1974), posthumous.
