Extracting Strings



This is probably much simpler than I'm making it, and seems like
something that is done all the time, but I can't find a combination of
regular expression and php function that does it.

I want to extract the data in the following string:

"Person Name" <email@xxxxxxx>

that is between the "" and the <> characters.

In this case I want to extract:

Person Name and email@xxxxxxx

so I can assign the results to a variable or array. I want to extract
each string separately.

If someone can help me construct the script/regular expression to do
this, I would appreciate it.

Thanks,
