I need help citing a book but each chapter has a different author. How do i do it in MLA citation?

The book is basically a bunch of articles arranged by a single person. In my works cited page i used the editor as the author.
But i don’t know what i should do for the in-text citations. i need to give credit to the individual authors of the articles. I can’t find the answer online. So someone please help me. Thanks in advance!!!!!!!!
