You may refer to the Codex documentation about conditional tags, you may find this specially useful: http://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags#An_Author_Page

You can use those conditionals inside your author template to display the conditional information you want. In this case wnat you want is something like:

if (is_author( '8' ))
{
    //Do something cool
}

Hope it helps.

You need to run the is_author() function like this:

if( is_author('8'); ) {
    echo 'somehthing';
}
