Keller, Helen Adams

   Also found in: Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.09 sec.

Keller, Helen Adams (1880-1968)

US author and campaigner for the blind. She became blind and deaf after an illness when she was only 19 months old, but the teaching of Anne Sullivan, her lifelong companion, enabled her to learn the names of objects and eventually to speak. Keller graduated with honours from Radcliffe College in 1904; published several books, including The Story of My Life (1902); and toured the world, lecturing to raise money for the blind.
