Annie Sullivan

By the age of four, Annie Sullivan was legally blind due to a disease called trachoma. At age nine, upon the death of her mother and abandonment by her father, she was sent to an orphanage that lacked formal education opportunities. However, she pleaded with an administrator to be allowed to learn and eventually graduated as valedictorian of the Perkins School for the Blind in 1886.

After several operations resulted in a return of her partial eyesight, she used her gifts and uncommon perspective to begin teaching a young deaf and mute girl named Helen Keller. Sullivan was the first teacher to find success with a deaf and mute child.

安妮·莎利文4岁时由于结膜炎双目失明。9岁时由于母亲的去世和父亲的遗弃被送到孤儿院。虽然几乎没有机会，莎利文还是恳求一位管理人员让自己上学，并最终在1886年以十分出色的成绩从柏金斯盲校毕业。后来经过几次手术，莎莉文重获部分视力，她凭借自己非凡的天赋成为一个聋哑小女孩——海伦·凯勒的老师，并最终成为第一位成功的聋哑小孩教师。
