Is their a way to pull the Authors name from the User Login on the Mac into an InDesign Document?

tell application "System Events"
   set userName to name of current user
   --or
   set userName to full name of current user
end tell

OR
set sysinfo to system info

long user name of sysinfo
  --or
short user name of sysinfo

As a one-liner:

set longUserName to long user name of (get system info)
