Is their a way to pull the Authors name from the User Login on the

I am hoping to be able to put an applescript on a template which
will automatically draw the Author (whoever edited it last) onto the
page. It could happen on opening the file or before printing and
saving the file.
Some files have metadata information available and it may have an
author different from the current user.
If this information is present, it can be seen in the listing from the
shell tool 'mdls'. The call from Terminal looks like:
$ mdls /path/to/some.ext
