An Emmy, Golden Globe, SAG and 4 time NAACP Image Award winner, S. Epatha Merkerson has won critical acclaim for her work in theatre, film and television.
Her film credits include HBO’s LACKAWANNA BLUES, Steven Spielberg’s LINCOLN, MOTHER AND CHILD, PEEPLES with Kerry Washington and TERMINATOR II: JUDGEMENT DAY. In the theatre Merkerson has been nominated for two Tony Awards (THE PIANO LESSON and COME BACK LITTLE SHEBA) and received two Obie Awards (BIRDIE BLUE and I’M NOT STUPID.) On television S. Epatha has guest starred in numerous pilots and TV movies but is best known for her 17-season tenure as Anita Van Buren the no-nonsense lieutenant on LAW AND ORDER.
Eleven years ago, S. Epatha got an important wake-up call when she was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. After her diagnosis, she decided to get serious about her health by working with her doctor to come up with a diabetes management plan that was right for her, including the right diet, exercise and medications to help her meet her A1C goal.
Because her brother also has the condition, and both her father and grandmother died from complications of diabetes, S. Epatha has seen firsthand how the disease can change your life, and has been committed to getting to her A1C, blood pressure and cholesterol goals.
That’s why S. Epatha is now working with Merck on the America’s Diabetes Challenge: Get to Your Goals program to encourage other people living with type 2 diabetes to join in her in pledging to know their A1C and work with their doctor to set and attain their own blood sugar goals.
