Get the object being loaded within Event.Complete function?

Question

I am applying loader.contentLoaderInfo listeners to object in
a loop. Is there a way to get the object that has called the
Event.Complete and the associated function?

for example:

private function completeHandler(event:Event):void {
trace (the Loader object that called this function);
}

???

It seems like there would be something similar to
'event.target' but I understand that it is the contentLoader that
has the eventListener applied to it. Thanks!

use the loader property of event.target.

Unfortunatly I can't see that link here at work.. blocked as a personal page.. I want to get the name of the object.. for example:

graphicRequest = new URLRequest(mediaFullPath);
graphicLoader = new Loader();
graphicLoader.load(graphicRequest);
graphicLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, mediaLoadComplete);
imgMC.addChild(graphicLoader).name = "img1";

private function mediaLoadComplete(event:Event):void {
trace(event.target.name); // or trace(event.currentTarget.name); ... etc...
}

want it to trace "img1";
