Miss Sullivan was Helen's life-long companion and teacher. It is difficult to imagine Helen without her great teacher. it was she who taught her words, sentences and speech.

She was an extreamly patient and hard working woman. She went with Helen everywhere. At every shcool she spelled into her hand whatever the teacher said. It is not an easy task. Even at college she attended classes with Helen and spelled the lectures into her hand as rapidly as possible. As very few books requiredin the various cources were printed for blind, in raised alphabets, she had to labour hard. Her hands would never tire.

She was a selfless supporter. She rarely went on leave and stood by Helen like a solid rock. When Helen was charged with plagarism, it was she who investigated to the matter and told the world that how Helen had commited a mistake unknowingly. She always encouraged her to go ahead and acheive her dreams.

The Story of My Life reveals Annie Sullivan as the inspiration behind Helen Keller's extraordinary life. She is only partially-sighted herself, after undergoing surgery to correct her vision at a young age and herself having been educated at The Perkins Institute for The Blind, a place instrumental in Helen Keller's own development.

Anne Sullivan, Annie, is the person responsible for "the most important day I remember in all my life" (ch 5) as Helen recognizes Annie's contribution throughout her life as teacher, interpreter, friend, companion and motivator. Annie never misses an opportunity to teach Helen, whether it be academically or life skills. She teaches Helen an appreciation in even the smallest detail: "in every blade of grass, and in the curves and dimples of my baby sister's hand."(ch 5) Annie has the capacity to help Helen connect with nature and "made me feel that 'birds and flowers and I were happy peers.'"(ch 5)

One of Annie Sullivan's most instrumental effects is felt when she makes Helen "Think." It is this that helps Helen make the connection between the abstract and the physical as "you feel the sweetness that it (love) pours into everything."(ch 6) Annie makes "every subject so real that I could not help remembering."(ch 7) So profound is the impact that Annie Sullivan has on Helen that "her being is inseparable from my own, and (that) the footsteps of my life are in hers."
