Thanks for this. It took me a minute to figure out what you were saying so I decided to share some code to help others. Not sure if this is the perfect way to do this but it works.

header.php

<?php if ( is_author( ) ) { ?>
     <div id="navigation">
     	<div id="author-page">
			 <ul>
				<?php
                 $current_page = $post->post_parent;
                 $top_level = wp_page_menu('show_home=1&title_li=&depth=1&sort_column=menu_order&echo=0');
                 // Put it all together
                 $menu .= $top_level;
                 print $menu;
                ?>
			</ul>
	 	</div>
     </div>
     <? } else { ?>
     <div id="navigation">
			<ul>
				<?php
                 $current_page = $post->post_parent;
                 $top_level = wp_page_menu('show_home=1&title_li=&depth=1&sort_column=menu_order&echo=0');
                 // Put it all together
                 $menu .= $top_level;
                 print $menu;
                ?>
			</ul>
	 	</div>
     <?php } ?>

CSS

#navigation #author-page li.page-item-6 {
...
}

Thanks again!
