Remove Author Credit on RSS

I want to remove the Author credit on my RSS feed. The problem: When you go to my regular feed page (https://birchlakevillas.com/feed/) there is no Author listed – looks good. BUT, when I view in a feed reader on my iPhone, the Author is listed as blank on the first line (Author: ).

I searched the forums and found someone that solved the problem by removing this line:
<dc:creator><?php the_author() ?></dc:creator>
from the feed-rss2.php file. When I do this the regular RSS still displays fine online, but in my feed reader on my iPhone something is corrupt, because no feeds display at all.

Any suggestions? Thanks!
