Fawn Mckay
Fawn McKay Brodie was born in Ogden Utah on September 15 1915. She was a member of the Mormon Church's first family Fawn McKay directed her ingenious writing talents as well as her remarkable researching skills in the creation of the brilliant psycho-historical biography of Joseph Smith, published in 1945. The book was titled The Only Man is able to know My History. The title was an inspiration for a funeral sermon delivered in 1844 by Church of Latter-Day Saints founder, Joseph Smith. The sermon said: "You do not know what I'm about and you've never met my soul." No one has ever been told about my story. I can't tell. Fawn wrote the 29-year-old Fawn. Since then, at least three writers have taken on the challenge. Certain writers have deified and even abused him, while others have attempted to diagnose the cause. The problem isn't that there aren't enough documents but rather they are wildly divergent. The process of assembling these documents, sifting through first-hand and third-hand sources and fitting the Mormons' stories to those of other people's historical context - can be a challenge. This is both exciting and instructive. FawnBrodie was able to take on this expert task with enthusiasm and energy. Her work in research and writing brought her fame around the world.
