This extension is based on extbase & fluid and provides the famous extension ext:news of Georg Ringer (thanks a lot @georgringer !) with one or more authors. You can centrally manage authors and attach them to news records. The extensions comes with a plugin, which lists all authors and provides a detail page of one author which also shows the news records of the selected author.

{author.phone}
{author. ...}
</f:for>
- Add a link to the profile page
Don't forget to load the viewhelper {namespace md=Mediadreams\MdNewsAuthor\ViewHelpers}:
<f:for each="{newsItem.newsAuthor}" as="author">
<f:link.action action="show" controller="NewsAuthor" extensionName="mdnewsauthor" pluginName="newsauthor" arguments="{newsAuthor: author}" pageUid="{settings.newsAuthor.authorDetailPid}" title="More about {md:ShowAuthorName(author:'{author}')}">
<md:ShowAuthorName author="{author}" />
</f:link.action>
</f:for>
In order to show only authors of a single page in the "Authors"-tab of a news record, you can use the following TSconfig:
TCEFORM.tx_news_domain_model_news.news_author.PAGE_TSCONFIG_STR = AND tx_mdnewsauthor_domain_model_newsauthor.pid = 1
This will show only the author records, which are stored on page ID = 1
