If that's the literal string that you're getting, use the Scan() function to find the location of the colon (:) character, and the Subst() function to split out the part beyond that character.

You might also find that you get a more sensible output by calling the }TM1_DefaultDisplayValue alias value

i.e.
sUser = AttrS('}Clients', TM1User(), '}TM1_DefaultDisplayValue');
