Golden Globe Award winner and Emmy Award nominee Matthew Modine (the film Short Cuts, 'And the Band Played On'), who can currently be seen on Broadway as Helen Keller's father in THE MIRACLE WORKER, will be a guest tomorrow, February 19th on NBC's 'Today' during the 10:00 AM hour.

Academy Award® nominee Abigail Breslin, currently starring as Helen Keller in William Gibson's Tony Award® winning play THE MIRACLE WORKER, was profiled in The New York Times' Arts & Leisure section on Sunday, February 14th.

Alison Pill, currently starring on Broadway in the Helen Keller drama, THE MIRACLE WORKER, recently sat down with New York Magazine to discuss her career and her penchant for playing dark roles.

At the young age of 13, actress Abigail Breslin is already a film veteran with a slew of films to her name including 'Signs', 'Definitely, Maybe', 'My Sister's Keeper', and the bittersweet 'Little Miss Sunshine' for which she was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress as well as a Screen Actors Guild Award. But it may be Breslin's latest challenging role, that of the deaf-mute Helen Keller on Broadway's 'The Miracle Worker', which may redefine the young actress' already-high artistic reach.
