Automatic - Based on User/Author of an article

I would like to be able to have specific content appended to all articles automatically based on which User/Author is writing the content. Is this possible? Is there a plug-in for this or another way to accomplish it?

For instance, if Bob Jones is logged in , I would like to have something added at the end of every one of his articles like:

“Written by: Bob Jones
Contact Bob by phone at: 555-555-1212
or by email at: bobbyj@email.com
or fax your resume to: 555-555-1213”

But if Jane Doe is logged in, it would instead automatically add:

“Written by: Jane Doe
Contact janeby phone at: 555-555-1214
or by email at: janed@email.com
or fax your resume to: 555-555-1217”

look up author at textpattern.org, there are several plugins that do something close to this. If these don’t meet your needs then request a plugin that does :)

Sweet.
RSS_IF_AUTHOR should do the trick.
I appreciate your help.
