As part of my sabbatical I have been reading a little about the remarkable group of geographers that David Simonett assembled at UC-Santa Barabra. It ended up as a pretty big list, but includes Waldo Tobler, Reg Golledge, Mike Goodchild, and Bill Warntz. The links aren't great (I can't share the sources I am reading) but if you don't know these GIS pioneers, they will still be a good start.
