The Rest of the Story


Although "The Miracle Worker" was an excellent play about the life of Helen Keller, I wish it would have continued on with the rest of Helen's life. There is soooo much more that happened to her after she first grasped the wonder of language!

Take a few minutes to watch the following video clips. The first one I especially found fascinating because it shows how Helen eventually learned to speak by feeling the vibrations in her teacher's throat as she talked.
