Helen Keller was born on June 27, 1880, but her life took a drastic turn when she contracted an illness that left her both deaf and blind at the age of 19 months. Despite these challenges, her life transformed on March 3, 1887, when her dedicated teacher, Anne Mansfield Sullivan, entered her world, bridging the gap between Keller's isolation and the outside world (Keller 23). Sullivan's influence helped Keller learn to communicate, leading her to achieve remarkable successes, including becoming an author and advocate for people with disabilities. The relationship with Sullivan marked a pivotal moment in Keller's life, establishing a foundation for her future accomplishments.
