conditional formatting a cell based on the text of another cell

Is there a way to make a cell highlight based on yes/no text of another cell? 

 

The situation: A= name of individual, B= contacted (yes/no)

Can A be conditionally formatted to be filled yellow if the individual was not yet contacted (cell B=no)? I am having a hard time figuring out the formula for this.

    =B2="no"

    You can apply this rule for conditional formatting.

    =$A$2:$A$20

    This is the range the format applies to in the example.
