• Description: Helen Keller was an American author and activist who became deafblind in early childhood. With the assistance of her teacher Anne Sullivan, she developed tactile communication skills and graduated from college in 1904. From the 1910s onward, Keller travelled extensively in the United States and abroad to deliver lectures and advocate for disability rights. She visited Europe, Japan, the Middle East, Latin America, and Africa over several decades. Her international tours helped promote education and accessibility programs for blind and deaf communities worldwide. Her major works include The Story of My Life (1903) and Midstream: My Later Life (1929)
