And even fewer people are familiar with Steve McCurry's vast body of work which is breathtakingly beautiful. Here's a sample...
And here's a brief section from an NPR story article about McCurry...
McCurry's work has been featured in nearly every major magazine around the world, and he is undoubtedly one of the best living photographers in his field.
He lives the solitary life of a traveler almost nine months out of the year. Immersing himself in every culture he encounters, McCurry is as much an anthropologist and humanitarian as he is a documentary photographer. He's a master of light, of composition and color, and his photographs tell the story of not one culture, but of humanity on the whole -- struggles and triumphs alike.

Not everyone shares the opinion from the NPR story, that he is one of the best living photographers in his field. This is a class which I think he may get to if he stops trying to shoot for other people and does it more from his own heart. But he certainly is an excellent photographer.
