It is hard to find someone in Talbot County that is more Easton that David Hill. The son of one of Easton’s multi-century families and beloved downtown pharmacy, a successful dentist, the founder of William Hill Manor, and now Chairman of Easton Bank, Dave Hill has always had a high profile in this neck of the woods. But recently, Dr. Hill has added another chapter to this list of town connections. He has become a public spokesperson for addiction recovery.
In fact, if there was an archetype for the new era of addiction recovery, Dave comes pretty close. Confident, self-aware, and very candid about his past relationship with cocaine, Dr. Hill has no hesitation at being identified with someone that had a serious addiction, but in doing so is breaking away from one of the recovery community’s oldest of chestnuts – anonymity.
In his interview with the Spy, Dave talks about his personal journey in recovery and also highlights how far our community has come to better understand this illness.
