From Lieutenant to Lola
To see S. Epatha Merkerson be tough, just turn on a TV and look for “Law and Order”‘s Lt. Anita Van Buren. But to see her smile, you’ll have to catch her in the Broadway revival of “Come Back, Little Sheba.” Jenny Lawton finds out if Merkerson is a tough cookie or as nice as pie.
