Which proclamation? The document that members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (commonly called "Mormons") call 'the proclamation' was written in 1995 by Gordon B. Hinckley. Perhaps you are thinking of 'the declaration'... There are two, one was the Declaration on Polygamy, written by Wilford Woodruff in 1889, and the other is the Declaration on Priesthood, written in 1978 by Spencer W. Kimball.
