On This Day - June 1st 1968

Helen Keller, blind and deaf author and lecturer, dies. 

Helen Keller was born in Tuscumbia, Alabama on 27 June 1880. She was deprived of her senses of sight and hearing when she contracted scarlet fever before she was two years old. The breakthrough for Helen Keller came when her teacher, Anne Sullivan, persisted with the difficult child to make her understand that touching shapes and letters were her means to communication. Helen Keller was the first deaf and blind person to graduate with a college degree, and ultimately published 14 books. She met every President of the United States from Calvin Coolidge to John F Kennedy, and wrote to eight Presidents of the United States, from Theodore Roosevelt in 1903 to Lyndon B. Johnson in 1965, receiving letters from all of them. Helen Keller died on 1 June 1968.
