Description
From the Chittenden County Historical Society:
The Story of Anne Connelly, who, as a blind woman, ran her own business and was the first to have a trained guide dog.
Development Director of the Vermont Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired (VABVI) John Thomas presents the fascinating story of Anne Connelly, entitled: "Anne Connelly: The Blind Merchant of Burlington". Connelly (1899-1939) came to Vermont as a blind adult, and worked for VABVI (then the Vermont Association for the Blind), introduced our community to trained guide dogs and white canes, and ran her own business - all while supporting the blind community.
