Exclude Tags by Array

You could achieve this with get_terms() and 'name__like' => 'Author:' argument. See linked documentation.

From architecture perspective, however, you probably shouldn’t be (ab)using tags for this. It would make sense to split your authors into custom taxonomy. It would be more clear semantically, as well as easier to deal with in interface and code.
