Bishop Brooks was someone who helped Helen grow spiritually. He was a source of inspiration to Helen and she was attached to him since childhood.

Dr. Alexander Graham Bell played a significant role in the life of Helen Keller. So profound was his influence on Helen that she dedicated her autobiography “The Story of My Life” to him. Dr .Bell was consulted by the Kellers in order to seek help for Helen’s education. Helen took to him immediately and was moved by his tenderness and sympathy. The meeting with Dr. Bell instilled hope into her and allayed her fears of being isolated.

He had a kind personality which is understood in the way in which he used to engage Helen by explaining amusing things to her in a way nobody could. According to Helen, he was proficient in many fields of science and had the ability to turn any drab, abstruse subject interesting. He saw the best in people and believed that anybody could be an inventor had he or she had enough time. Contrasting with his image of a scientist, Dr. Bell was also an artist and a humorous person. But the greatest quality that motivates the humanitarian in Dr. Bell is his love for children. He was devoted to the cause of deaf children and he wanted to make the world a better place for them.

Mr. Arthur Gilman was the principal of Cambridge School for the young ladies. He was not only an efficient teacher but also someone who aroused Helen's interest in history and literature. Mr Gilman would read out the papers to Helen during her examinations using manual alphabet and then read out what she had written so that she could correct her answers. He was extremely affectionate towards Helen. A difference of opinion between Mr. Gilman and Miss Sullivan regarding Helen’s studies was the reason why Helen’s mother withdrew her two daughters from the school.

Mr. William Endicott

When Helen Keller went to Boston, she met many people. One of these people was Mr. William Endicott. She became friends with him and with his daughter. They invited Helen to visit their home outside of Boston. They lived in an oceanside area north of the city of Boston called Beverly Farms. They treated Helen a great deal of kindness, which she described as "the seed from which many pleasant memories have since grown." She enjoyed interacting with their dogs and horse, as well as exploring their property. They had a rose garden and the beach was close by. Mr. Endicott described the ships that sailed by Beverly Farms from Boston to Helen. These ships were on their way east to Europe.

Mr. Endicott remained Helen's friend for years, and she saw him on many occasions. Helen fondly referred to Boston as ""The City of Kind Hearts" and thought of Mr. Endicott.
