Returns an ABC News author's profile: name, job title/biography when the page carries one, and social links, from a canonical author URL. Does NOT include a list of the author's recent articles -- unlike this repo's other news-author endpoints, ABC News only exposes that list through an internal endpoint disallowed for every crawler in abcnews.com's robots.txt (a generic "Disallow: /proxy/*" rule, not limited to AI-training bots), so it is out of scope for this endpoint.
