Miss Annie Sullivan was Helen Keller's teacher, friend, and companion. Without Miss Sullivan, Helen may never have learned how to communicate effectively. Helen described the incredible impact Miss Sullivan had on her life:
The most important day I remember in all my life is the one on which my teacher, Anne Mansfield Sullivan, came to me. I am filled with wonder when I consider the immeasurable contrasts between the two lives which it connects (The Story of My Life, IV).
Miss Sullivan had been blind, but had an operation to repair her sight. She attended the Perkins Institute for the Blind, and was recommended by Mr. Anagnos to help Helen Keller. Miss Sullivan moved to Alabama to become Helen's teacher. Helen was stubborn and mischievous, but Miss Sullivan never gave up. One day, Helen even locked Miss Sullivan in her room and hid the key.
Miss Sullivan spelled words into Helen's hands over and over again, but the child did not understand. One day, Miss Sullivan held Helen's hand under a waterspout. As the cool liquid fell into the young girl's palm, Miss Sullivan spelled "w-a-t-e-r" into her hand. Helen finally made the connection between the word and the water. With Miss Sullivan's help, Helen learned to communicate through finger spelling. She also taught her young pupil to read and write.
Helen Keller is the author of the memoir The Story of My Life. Left deaf and blind by a childhood illness, Helen grows up into a remarkable adult who is full of life and love for learning, nature, and her friends. She also works tirelessly to educate the public about the rights and needs of people with disabilities. Annie Sullivan is Helen’s patient and determined young teacher from the Perkins Institute for the Blind. Alexander Graham Bell is a famous inventor who recommends the Perkins Institute to Helen’s parents. Dr. Anagnos is the director of the Institute and encourages both Annie and Helen
