Well, I wasn't as famous or well known as a the likes of Linus Torvalds, but I was quite well known in the journalistic circles and those who write about all things FOSS. I used to run Raiden's Realm (
www.raiden.net) and worked at getting newbies into the Linux/FOSS world. By the sounds of it, you may not have heard of me, being far more advanced skill and experience wise than I typically worked with. But if you were out working with newbies a lot, you likely should have run into me. The guys at Tuxmachines, Linux Today, and some of the other bigger news sites quite often posted my articles, which in turn found their way into the FOSS world.
