After answering, I realized that you were asking about revisions, not the author of the node. I didn't see an easy way to do that, sorry.

I believe if you go to the User tab, and just add User Name it will do it. To be clear: Add a field, (you can select User in the Groups select box) User: Name.
That should detect the 'owner' name and display it. Hope that helps!

When adding fields to a view, is it possible to show which user created the current revision of a node. I thought it would be quite useful to display on a "Recent Updates" view but I can't see how to do it. The information must be there as the revisions tab on each page shows which user made the revision. I've looked in the database and the node_revisions table only has the uid so I guess it would need some sort of join to be done to access the user from the user table.
Thanks,
Mark.
