No, only the title of the book is underlined. The author's name is simply written in the form [surname], [other names]. ___ In the main body of the essay, refer to authors by surname only or by first and last name, for example, Chaucer or Geoffrey Chaucer, not Chaucer, Geoffrey. The order given above relates only to the bibliography.

It is not necessary to underline the author's name when typing an essay. Instead, you can simply use proper formatting such as italicizing the author's name or including it in the citation.
