I'll add some of my favourites to the list. Apologies if I've repeated some - there were lots of names on the list!
CS Friedman, probably best known for the Coldfire Trilogy (fantasy) but personally my favourite is This Alien Shore (SF).
Jacqueline Carey, fantasy. I've always wondered if she was inspired by
this famous list.
Julian May, SF, though I think there is fantasy in the mix as well.
Sheri S Tepper
For the younger audience, I enjoyed Diana Wynne Jones (Harry Potter done earlier and better!), Robin McKinley, Madeleine L'Engle, Patricia McKillip.
And there's loads more...
