Exact match on few fields, fuzzy on others

[Pranav Prakash]

Hi Folks,

I am using Solr 3.4 and my document schema has attributes - title,
transcript, author_name. Presently, I am using DisMax to search for a user
query across transcript. I would also like to do an exact search on
author_name so that for a query "Albert Einstein", I would want to get all
the documents which contain Albert or Einstein in transcript and also those
documents which have author_name exactly as 'Albert Einstein'.

Can we do this by dismax query parser? The schema for both the fields are
below:

 <fieldType name="text_commongrams" class="solr.TextField">
    <analyzer>
      <charFilter class="solr.HTMLStripCharFilterFactory" />
