In a photo that Law & Order star Mechad Brooks posted to his Instagram account, Phifer poses on set with a group that includes Eriq La Salle, who played ER‘s Dr. Benton and who has directed several Law & Orderverse and #OneChicago episodes, and Michael Beach, who played ER‘s Al Boulet and who recurs as Law & Order lawyer Brian Harris.

In addition to playing ER‘s Dr. Pratt, Phifer’s TV work also includes roles on Lie to Me; Torchwood; House of Lies; Frequency; Love, Victor; A&E’s Roots remake, The Bobby Brown Story and Truth Be Told. His film work includes 8 Mile, Honey and Dawn of the Dead.
