I would say Sebastio Salgado. Not only is he one of the greatest documentary photogaphers in the history of the medium, but he is also, along with his wife, a wonderful humanitarian. On a lighter note, you can't go wrong with Elliott Erwitt.

Did you know he was a special effect advisor to Kurbrick for "Dr. Strangelove?"

Ding ding ding. Steiglitz is in my top 5 photographers, as much for his work in getting photography accepted as an art as for his outstanding photos.
