Byline of Hope: Collected Newspaper and Magazine Writing of Helen Keller In Byline of Hope, Towson University journalism professor Beth A. Haller examines Helen Keller’s w

Throughout the years there have been many analyses of Helen Keller’s activities. The life of this world-famous, deaf-blind woman offers much for study; she was an author, a socialist, the star of an early silent film, a vaudevillian, a suffragist, an international advocate and fundraiser for blind people. But no scholarship has thoroughly examined her writings for newspapers and magazines. Byline

of Hope collects and analyzes her newspaper and magazine articles located in publications like Good Housekeeping, Ladies Home Journal, and The New York Times, as well a little-known magazine column that carried her byline for five years in the early 1930s. The book organizes her magazine and newspaper articles around themes, such as her sensory experiences, women’s issues, and moral character to give voice to her progressive ideas. Byline of Hope is published by the Advocado Press, which publishes books on the disability experience in America. The $19.95 softcover book is available for pre-order online at www.advocadopress.org. The book is edited by media and disability scholar Beth Haller, author of the 2010 Advocado Press book, Representing Disability in an Ableist World: Essays on Mass Media. She is a journalism professor at Towson University in Maryland and curates disability news at Media dis&dat, http://media-dis-n-dat.blogspot.com/.
