# Get a TMZ person profile

`GET /tmz/author`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.crawlora.net/api/v1`
- URL: `https://api.crawlora.net/api/v1/tmz/author`
- Auth: API key in header `x-api-key`

Returns a named person's TMZ profile hub: their name and their most recent TMZ coverage, from a canonical person-hub URL or slug. TMZ credits virtually all of its editorial content to a single "TMZ Staff" byline with no individual journalist profile pages, so this endpoint surfaces TMZ's own public per-person coverage hub (used for both celebrities and other newsmakers TMZ covers) as the closest available "profile + recent articles" surface.

## Query parameters

- `slug` string
- `url` string
- `page` integer

## Headers

- `x-api-key` string, required

## Response `200`
