Fawn Mckay
Fawn McKay was born on 15 September 1915 in Ogden, Utah. Fawn MacKay, who was a Mormon member of the Church the Latter-Day Saints' original family, combined her brilliant writing skills with her impressive expertise in research to create the incredible psychohistorical book, No Man is a Master of My History, which was published in 1945. The title comes from the funeral sermon of Joseph Smith, the founder of The Church of Latter-Day Saints. The preacher shocked the audience when he said telling his audience: "You don't even know my name. I haven't even met the inside of my mind." There is no one who knows my past. Nobody knows my story. The 29-year-old wrote Fawn in this moment of honesty, there have been at least three hundred writers who have taken up the gauntlet. Some have attacked him, some have praised him, a couple have even tried their hand in the field of medical diagnosis. It's not because the records aren't complete, it is rather that they are fiercely contradictory. It is a difficult task to assemble these documents as well as separate the first-hand versions from those of third-hand sources and to put Mormon and non Mormon stories into a coherent mosaic. This is both exciting and instructive. It's a task which Fawn Brodie committed herself professionally. Thaddeus Stewards, a result of her work and research has made her a popular writer. The Devil drives (1959). Thomas Jefferson. A Personal The Story of Thomas Jefferson (1974) and later posthumously Richard Nixon.
