Top of my list...
Merg Ross

Take a look at his website, www.mergross.com I think you'll agree.

Excellent, in every sense,

Sebastiao Salgado,
Carl Ciarenza,
...

Renato, without doubt Carl ranks high on my list of outstanding photographers. He has a long and distinguished career, from the 1950's to the present time. Good choice!

For those who may be unfamiliar with Carl's work, check out his galleries:

Ed Ross
Kenro Izu

I will add two:

Mark Citret
Ed Ross

Yea Ed Ross is great, Luther Gerlach too both would be on my list and both I consider friends.

I would add Borut Peterlin, Chris Honeysett and Renata Młynarczyk to the list of "Contemporary Traditional Photographers" if that isn't a total oxymoron, lol.

Top 10 without a specific category is impossible.

Also "contemporary" would mean non-traditional digital photographers... So ... Peter Lik would fit that, and I know 95% of the people here don't want that. LOL.
