Peter Benenson
http://news.independent.co.uk/people/obituaries/story.jsp?story=615411
Founder of Amnesty International
28 February 2005
Peter Solomon (Peter Benenson), barrister and human-rights campaigner:
born London 31 July 1921; married first Margaret Anderson (two
daughters; marriage dissolved 1972), second 1973 Susan Booth (one son,
one daughter); died Oxford 25 February 2005.
Peter Benenson founded Amnesty (later Amnesty International) in 1961
and thereby became the creator of a human-rights movement which now
counts more than a million members in 150 countries. His warmth and
generosity of spirit gained him friends round the globe. His modesty
was such that decades later many, even at Amnesty, did not realise he
was the founder of the organisation.

We could use another dozen or so of him.
He will be missed, but his work will continue.
