nope, there are no famous trumpet players no matter how many people you play for ;)
Actually there are many..... Dizzy Gillespie Maynard Ferguson Arturo Sandaval Wynton Marsalis Just to name a few...
Doc Severinson not famous enough? Chuck Mangione slip your mind?
Who are those people? I've also never heard of them...

What's a trumpet?

From my past.........
Guitar Technician & Stage Manager for JOURNEY, Neal Schon, Ross Valory, Jon Cain from 1983 to 2002,
Gregg Rolie 2002
...
cool! It must be nice to have helped some very creative people with their art.

Software I was the lead developer for (MicroCase) has been bundled with well over a million college textbooks, but that doesn't get me recognized on the street :)

Software I'm the lead developer for now (Respondus) is used by faculty at thousands of colleges and universities, but that only makes the company famous not me personally.

Your "status" is based upon money and material things. Mine is based on spiritual status of a higher realm, therefore I am the most "famous" person on ATOT. I am the original Buddha reincarnated.
