    And Who Is The Hero?
    It's an admiring biography of Helen Keller, in which she and Annie Sullivan play their current roles. Looking at it, I can see the roots of THE MIRACLE WORKER, but ....

    Well, like many admiring biographies, it seems a hagiography of a miracle woman. Accustomed to the later work, I view Annie Sullivan as the one who did all the hard work, a John the Baptist to Miss Keller. In this version of the story, once the possibility is opened to her, the world falls to her insatiable curiosity, Miss Sullivan becomes little more than her extension, and even the girl who hated her as a child seeks her aid when her son is blinded in the Great War.

    I suppose it it ridiculous to expect a more balanced telling in this period, when the opportunity, the simple chance of Miss Keller's accomplishments were so outrageously slight. The world is always searching for heroes, and Miss Keller's accomplishments were heroic. But what of Miss Sullivan's accomplishments?
