Accessing backing beans from the controller class

[Brian Nice]

Sorry, this is probably really basic, but I'm just starting out. As a simple example, if i have a page that has a name input field, along with a button that is for a different bean:

<input label="Name" jsfc="h:inputText" required="true" id="name" value="#{person.name}" /><p/>
<input  type="submit" jsfc="h:commandButton" id="submit" action="#{controller.greeting}" value="Say Hello" />

In the controller:

    
public String greeting() {
// how do i get access to the person bean in this class?
return "greeting";
}

I forsee us having multiple beans that back one page, and then a controller class that needs access to all those beans. Thanks for the help
