#HappyBirthday to the #June27 #BirthdayCohort (with @KhloeKardashian & @TobeyMaguire & ... you? etc.) on #HelenKeller Day @Wikipedia | @411Holidays @BirthdayMates #TheFamousPeople @YourTango @MySundayMass

I sometimes get a little 'thrill' from realizing that I have the same birthday as several famous people, and enough other people get that thrill from seeing their birthday-cohort (both the currently-famous & the probably-not-yet famous) that I figure it's worth doing 'one of these entries for every birthday'---maybe focusing on one of these holidays & or event-anniversaries in each entry)?'

Today is devoted to Helen Keller (on her birthday) because ... well, 'her significance" is explained on the page linked through her name below; but first I want to understand that name better. And I find that you understand words better when you look at the other words at the bases of the words you're thinking-of ...

Helen #Keller was (I'll summarize here ... see the links for a full explanation) a blind & deaf woman whose autobiography (coupled with her work as a disability-rights advocate and a political activist) inspired stage-&-screen's The Miracle Worker
Helen's surname “Keller” is built on ancient words that mean "|Cellar" (where the family would keep the Food & Drink).
