Where do I write ‘reformed alcoholic’ on my resume?

Dear Lucy:

I’m a successful federal employee trying to move in a new direction. I’m applying for jobs that I’m well qualified for and though I keep reaching the top three, I haven’t been offered any positions. The problem is that I’m a reformed alcoholic who has been sober for six years. But before that there were ugly episodes of drunkenness, all well known to people in my (small) field of expertise. I am proud of my sobriety and have virtually no chance of regressing. I feel I should share my history with prospective employers, but where does one enter “reformed alcoholic” on a resume? Under “hobbies”?

Is there a way I can own up to my dark past and show that I have a bright future?
