Fawn Mckay
Fawn McKay was born on 15 September 1915 in Ogden Utah. Fawn MacKay, who was a member of the Mormon Church's first family, used her astonishing literary skills and impressive researching skills to create the psycho-historical biographies about Joseph Smith. The book called The book, No Man has a clue about My History was published in 1945. The title is derived from an 1844 funeral sermon preached by Joseph Smith, the Church of Latter-Day Saints' founder. No one knows about my past. I don't know. Fawn has written the 29-year-old Fawn. Since that moment the three authors have stood up to the challenge. A lot of them have denigrated him and some have deified him; some have even attempted to make a diagnostics. It's not that documents are lacking it is rather that they're wildly contradictory. It's not an easy job to find these records and separate first-hand stories from the third-hand versions and then combining Mormon accounts with those of non-Mormon people into a coherent mosaic. It is both interesting as well as eye-opening. Fawn Brodie's professional life was devoted to this aim. The results of her study and writing made her immortalized with the world's attention: Thaddeus Stevens. The Devil drives (1959). Thomas Jefferson. An Intimate Historiography (1974) as well as posthumously Richard Nixon.
