Looking at the wikipedia article on Ritchie, I found this photo of attendees of the 1984 Usenix Conference [0].
At the bottom of the page it points out some faces. There is a tall guy to Dennis' right, named as Erik Fair (not familiar with him, I'll admit) but he looks a lot like Larry Wall.
The only other face I recognised was Peter Langston, it demonstrates how little is known by the general public (including myself) about the contributions of all these people to CS.
