<?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly'); ?>

Just off the top of my head:

get_posts(array('author_name' => 'the_authors_name'))

You don't get anything preformatted like from wp_get_archives, just the list of posts, but you get the posts by author. If you need to do more fancy things or want to run a WP Loop you can do a custom WP_Query object as well.
