Question about what is defined as an author

[Jonathan]

While browsing Jules Verne books, the following sentence in the description of the author caught my eye:

"He is the third most translated author of all time, behind Disney Productions and Agatha Christie."

Now it seems to me that "Disney Productions" is not an "author" as I understand it, and every research I made on internet thereafter seems to always put Jules Verne as the second most translated author ever (after Agatha Christie).

Before correcting it, I am asking for a second opinion of a maybe more informed fellow librarian to check if it makes sense.

I would agree.

I agree as well.
