well, I don't have the example to hand, but my guess would be that 
you're looking to do something like:

from AccessControl import getSecurityManager

myfile.manage_addProperty('guest_name',
                           getSecurityManager().getUser().getId()
                           'string')

...where myfile is your file object.

That said, try just doing:

myfile.getOwner(), it may do what you want already...
