She was the first deaf and blind person to obtain a Bachelors of Arts degree. Helen traveled to over 39 countries with Anne to talk about her life and experiences. She wrote thirteen books. Keller learned Braille, and used it to read not only English but also French, German, Greek, and Latin. She is remembered as an advocate for people with disabilities amid numerous other causes. She was a suffragist, a pacifist, a Wilson opposer, a radical socialist, and a birth control supporter. In 1915, Helen Keller and George Kessler founded the Helen Keller International (HKI) organization. This organization is devoted to research in vision, health and nutrition. In 1920, she helped to found the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). Keller met every US President from Grover Cleveland to Lyndon B. Johnson and was friends with many famous figures, including Alexander Graham Bell, Charlie Chaplin, and Mark Twain. Keller was a member of the Socialist Party and actively campaigned and wrote in support of the working classes from 1909 to 1921 Keller joined the Industrial Workers of the World (known as the IWW or the Wobblies) in 1912 On September 14, 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson awarded Helen Keller the Presidential Medal of Freedom, one of the United States' highest two civilian honors.[13] In 1965 she was elected to the Women's Hall of Fame at the New York World's Fair. Keller devoted much of her later life to raise funds for the American Foundation for the Blind. In 1999, Keller was listed in Gallup's Most Widely Admired People of the 20th Century. In 2003, Alabama honored its native daughter on its state quarter. The Helen Keller Hospital in Sheffield, Alabama is dedicated to her. There is a street named after Helen Keller in Getafe, Spain. A service was held in her honor at the National Cathedral in Washington, DC after she died in her sleep and her ashes were placed there next to her constant companions, Anne Sullivan and Polly Thompson.
