Along with the usual group of paleo-greats you cite, might I suggest other
 major players in paleontology who seem to get little attention such as
 Joseph Jeidy, Charles Glimore, John Bell Hatcher, Sternberg or Barnum Brown
just to name a few? And in the case of Leidy, predates Marsh!

I'm sure, there are others that the members of this list can think of as
well.
