Philip Seymour Hoffman: First Public Appearance Since Rehab at 2013 Envision Awards[VIDEO]

Philip Seymour Hoffman appeared onstage at the 2013 Envision Awards in New York City on June 11 less than three weeks after checking out of rehab for detox from narcotic abuse, according to E! News. The 45-year-old actor and father of three entered a detox facility on the East Coast for a 10-day stay in May for a heroin relapse and was back to work on a movie by the end of last month. The Oscar winner struggled with substance abuse when he was in his early 20s but had not used in 23 years. Hoffman started battling addiction again over a year ago when he began abusing prescription pills and his habit escalated to snorting heroin.
