Peter Morville
Information architect and founder of Semantic Studios. He co-wrote Information Architecture for the World Wide Web (the "polar bear book") with Lou Rosenfeld, and later wrote Ambient Findability and Search Patterns. I've quoted him on Ambient Findability and on folksonomies, where he pushed back on the idea that hierarchy is going away. See Wikipedia.
