On 27 June 1880, Helen Keller was born in Alabama, US. A childhood illness left her deaf and blind, but she still learned to speak - writing a number of books, graduating from college, and meeting 12 US presidents. She became an inspiration to millions of people around the world. Witness speaks to her great-niece, Adair Faust.
