Deleting data on multiple sheets

Hi everyone,

I am wondering if someone can help me with an issue I've been having recently. I keep track of multiple metrics for people on multiple different reports, and was wondering if there was a way to delete these people and their data across each workbook without having to manually open up each workbook and delete them. For instance, I might have data on the same person in two separate workbooks as seen below. Is there a method I could use to search and delete all data on Joe Smith across all workbooks? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
