'Angel' Cop Going to 'Law & Order' Zap2It Online April 21, 2001 LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - Elisabeth Rohm, who has played the recurring role of Detective Kate Lockley on The WB's "Angel" for the past two seasons, will be joining NBC's long-running drama "Law & Order" next fall as the new Assistant District Attorney. Rohm will replace Angie Harmon, who asked to be released from her contract early so that she can pursue a feature film career. Since the show's original Assistant D.A. (played by Richard Brooks) left in 1993, the role has been filled by a string of attractive women: Jill Hennessy, Carey Lowell and Harmon. "I first worked with Liz four years ago and I have watched her develop into one of the finest young actresses working in television," says Dick Wolf, "Law & Order's" creator and executive producer. "Both [executive producer/head writer] Barry Schindel and I look forward to introducing another new and unique member of the 'Law & Order' family." In addition to "Angel," Rohm's other credits include starring in the TNT series "Bull" and a stint on the soap opera "One Life to Live." The actress will join the cast in the fall at the beginning of the season, "Law & Order's" 12th. Production begins next week in New York City.
