As a mature, confident woman, she showed the world that people with disabilities should not-and would not-be pushed aside.

But after nearly two decades of work led by her teacher, Annie Sullivan, Helen not only learned to express herself through language, she became an author, a political activist, a lecturer, and a vaudeville performer.
