Name the faces!

I'm doing some little competition thing, where you have to name the faces on this thing. They didn't really describe whether we're allowed extra help or not, so I just went for it.I really need the money prize for travelling this summer!
I have all of them except like 5, which is really irritating me, since NOBODY can get them.
Half of it is because I want to win and the other half is just because I'm so damn curious about who these people are!
Halp!

The one's circled in red are the ones I need. You can understand the numbering system...

14 is Rosa Parks 11 reminds me a bit of Jacques Cousteau, mainly because he's holding a camera. 7 with the black background and strong lighting is probably on a stage.. i'd think director or something. 5 is definitely Stanley Kubrick 16 is that old Israeli Prime Minister i think... Golda Meir. 17 with the white coat is clearly a doctor, scientist or psychiatrist... and judging from the film quality and the lack of a beard which was mandatory pre-war, probably from the 50s or 60s. May even be a famous Manhattan Project scientist or soemthing. 18 is some sort of Parrott. possibly a Maccaw
Edit: 15.. Looks like she's wearing a scout tie thing and she's in front of a flag. Looks like Juliette Gordon Low, although it looks like a picture of her when she's older than most of her photos on the net. 13 gives off a 1960s activist feel... possibly a mug-shot, american communist or something.

I think number 10 is Steve Jobs.

(Just to clarify, do you still need the ones that are checked?)

Number 11 is famous French photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson, the father of photojournalism.

I was thinking number 15 might've been a judge. Possibly Ruth Bader Ginsberg. But the picture doesn't look quite right.

I swear to god I've seen number six somewhere. I checked pictures of Winston Churchill and Malin Brando, but I don't think it's either of them.

I thought 12 looked more like Catherine Hepburn. I think you're thinking a little too modern.

Hmmm - I thought that 13 was allen ginsburg.
Yes, the ones which are ticked I already know. I also got the Steve Jobs vibe from 10, but he's not that old.
So far, the Henri-Cartier-Bresson answer is great! That is Maya Angelou - google images is your friend!
In case nobody got it, they're all famous scientists, filmakers, artists, singers, revotuionaries, etc
