Autorenporträt
Helen Keller (1880-1968) was stricken with a disease that left her blind and deaf at only nineteen months of age, and the story of how her teacher, Anne Sullivan, was able to break through and help her learn to communicate became the inspiration for millions. Keller quickly learned to read and write, and later became the first blind and deaf person to earn a college degree when she graduated from Radcliffe College. She spent her life traveling and writing in support of a wide variety of social issues, and was the author of several books, including The Story of My Life; Teacher, Anne Sullivan Macy; and My Religion, which was more recently released as Light in My Darkness. She has been the subject of many other books and films and has received numerous honors for her work.
