Triggered by Oscar Walter McConkie Jr. (born May 26, 1926) is an American politician and attorney in Utah and leader in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). He was the president of the Utah State Senate from 1965 to 1966 and is currently the chairman of the law firm of Kirton McConkie.[1] He has authored several popular books on LDS subjects. Early lifeMcConkie was born in Monticello, Utah, to Oscar W. McConkie and Margaret Vivian Redd. He grew up primarily in Salt Lake City, but, as a toddler he lived in Ann Arbor, where his father was completing a law degree at the University of Michigan. Oscar, Sr., was a State District Court judge for many years and was the Democratic candidate for Governor of Utah in 1960.[2] Oscar, Jr.'s older brother, Bruce R. McConkie, became a prominent general authority and author in the LDS Church. Oscar Jr. studied at the University of New Mexico from 1944 to 1946, where he also played football. He then went to the University of Utah, where he received a bachelor's degree in 1949 in political science and a juris doctorate in 1952. McConkie married Judith Stoddard in the Salt Lake Temple in 1951. They are the parents of eight children. McConkie has served in various LDS Church callings, including as bishop,[3] stake president,[4] mission president in Arizona,[5] and regional representative.[1] Law and politicsFrom 1952 to 1967 McConkie was an instructor in business law at Stevens-Henager College. He was the county attorney for Summit County, Utah from 1959 to 1963. Like his father, McConkie became a prominent Utah Democrat, and in 1960, he was the Utah point man for John F. Kennedy's presidential campaign.[6] From 1955 to 1957, McConkie was a member of the Utah House of Representatives. McConkie was elected president of the Utah State Senate during his first term in office. It was the first time a state senator in his initial term was elected president of the senate since the beginning term of the Utah State Senate. In 1956, hhe ran against William A. Dawson for Utah's 2nd congressional district.[7] He also served very briefly in 1965 and in 1966 as acting governor[8] when both the governor and secretary of state of Utah were not in the state. McConkie was president of the Salt Lake City School Board[8] and from 1982 to 1984 he was chair of the Utah State Board of Education. He was chair of the Governor's Committee on Education from 1983 to 1985. McConkie was a senior law partner representing the LDS Church.[9][10] McConkie argued the case that led to a broadening of the clergy-penitent privilege in Utah to include any information that was given by a parishioner to a cleric with the intent of getting spiritual advice. McConkie has been involved in international law, having drafted laws that were enacted in both Jamaica and Mauritius. McConkie was named lawyer of the year by the Utah State Bar in 2007.[11] Publications
