Subject: array of hashes (finding value)

I'm just looking for other possible solutions.  Sorry, this is kinda a
noob question.

Currently I loop through the array and check the value of each hash key
to find values.  Is that the only and/or best way to find matches?

example:

@invoices = [{:id => 1, :first_name => 'nate'}, {:id => 2, :fist_name =>
'greg'}, {:id => 3, :first_name =>}]

@invoices.each do |invoice|
  if invoice[:id] == params[:contact_id]
    bla... bla...
  end
end
