At 71, Jeff Daniels reflects on a pivotal moment at 50, when a brief relapse after 14 sober years led him to seek professional help. This critical decision, fueled by a hotel room epiphany and the realization that he couldn’t fight addiction alone, marked a turning point in his life.
Embracing expert guidance and acknowledging his family’s history with addiction, Daniels embarked on a journey of recovery that strengthened his family bonds and rejuvenated his career.
Now, with over two decades of sobriety, Daniels’ resilience shines through. His recent Tony nomination for “Blackbird” underscores his enduring talent and dedication.
