Born in 1880 in Alabama, Helen Keller's first nineteen months were much like that of any other child's. But that quickly changed. After Helen endured a terrible fever, she had become both blind and deaf. She learned to communicate with signs. But that was not enough. She gave interviews, wrote articles, and gave lectures around the world. Helen Keller's courage, intelligence, and fortitude are a shining example of strength in the face of unbelievable adversity.
