Annie, or Anne, Sullivan was born on 14 April 1866 in Feeding Hills, Massachusetts, the daughter of Irish farmers who left Ireland in 1847 because of the Irish Potato Famine. When Annie was eight, her mother died from tuberculosis, and when she was ten her father deserted her and her siblings, leaving them at the Massachusetts State Infirmary in Tewksbury. Annie was partially blind as a result of contracting the eye disease trachoma at age five. In 1880, she entered the Perkins School for the Blind where she underwent surgery and regained some of her sight. After graduating as class valedictorian in 1886, she began teaching Helen Keller.
