If you want to allow your content editors and administrators to assign new or existing content to anyone, you'll like this plugin very much indeed..
Activate the plugin through 'Plugins WordPress.
Visit Settings > Better Author Metabox to choose the post types where the Author metabox should be made available, and users.

You need to choose the post types where the plugin should be enabled.
If you've enabled post type to use the better metabox, but still only see authors, select user roles to make sure they're included in the dropdown.
