Mariska Hargitay on Cover of Self Magazine

I am a self-confessed Law & Order junkie, and the SVU episodes are my favorite. I love watching Mariska Hargitay (Olivia Benson) and Christopher Meloni (Elliott Stabler) rid the NYC streets of crime and predators.

Mariska, 42, is gracing the cover of the January issue of Self magazine, and she truly glows. She is gorgeous, self-assured and happy. She has been married to actor Peter Hermann for 2-1/2 years and they have aone-year-old son, August, together.
