Portrait of Anne Sullivan in 1887

We all know the story of Helen Keller, but do you know about the woman who finally taught her to read and write? Her name was Anne Sullivan and she was a  remarkable woman who was determined to go to school despite being blind and poor. She convinced the Perkins School for the Blind to accept her as a student, became valedictorian, and soon found herself the lifelong teacher and companion of Helen Keller, with whom she lived until she died.


INTRO - 37:45 Deanna shares the story of our lovely person of the week, Anne Sullivan.
