Cannon. His father was an Apostle in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and later was a member of its First Presidency. \u003c\/b\u003eCannon later rejected Mormonism and wrote a book, with Harvey J. O’Higgins, called Under the Prophet in Utah exposing the rigidly hierarchical nature of the Mormon organization.
