arraycell arraysclass

Hi every one! my problem is the following:

I have a class "Actor" that as a "Name" and "Age" properties. Then I have an N-size array of them a(1:N) = Actor();

now I want to create a cell array of all the names of the Actors in the in the Actors array.

Is there a neat fast way of doing this?!
