Rendered deaf and blind by illness, Helen Keller—with the help of teachers including Annie Sullivan—learned to read, write, and speak several languages. In 1903 while attending Radcliffe College, she wrote “Optimism Within” then became the first deaf-blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree. Her statue is on display in Emancipation Hall inside the Capitol Visitor Center.
