How to convert an Object List into JSON in ASP.NET

Question

I have a list of person objects which I want to send in response to a jquery' ajax request. I want to send the list into JSON format. The list is as follows -

List<Person> PersonList = new List<Person>();

Person Atiq = new Person("Atiq Hasan Mollah", 23, "Whassap Homie");
Person Sajib = new Person("Sajib Mamud", 24, "Chol kheye ashi");

PersonList.Add(Atiq);
PersonList.Add(Sajib);

How can I convert the "PersonList" list into JSON ?

JSON.NET has worked really well for me. http://www.codeplex.com/Json

And if you are doing Web Forms and JQuery then this link might help you out:
