On a multi-author blog, is it possible to have an archive that only displays posts attributed to any given author?  If so, how?

Thanks for your help.

You can create new Index templates for each author's entries or one Index template that shows them all.

By putting
CODE
<MTEntries author="AUTHORNAME">
mt tags here
</MTEntries>

this allows you to show just the entries for that author.

You might check out the tutorials for how I do it on TheRedKitchen:MT hacks: Master Author Archives and the more advanced MT hacks: Master Author Archive, MySQL version

Post back if you have more questions!
