Sep 15, 2019  – The Beetlejuice and Hunt for Red October actor actually traces his sobriety to well before those hits occurred.

In his book he writes, “God got me sober. That day, God was a black, 65-year-old retired postal worker named Lenny.” Going further on the man who helped him get away from the addictions, Baldwin continues, “Lenny said, ‘You never have to feel this way again if you don’t want to.” Working on the series Knots Landing proved to be both a career stepping stone and a further step towards serious damage. “Those two years that I lived in that white, hot period, as a daily drug abuser, as a daily drinker … to my misery, boy, that was a tough time … there was really, really a lot of pain in there, a lot of pain.” Baldwin said during a conversation with ABC News.
