Seems to me that guitar has been popularized many times during the 20th century, as evidenced by the excellent answers people are coming up with. Each genre has its guitar hero who recreated the rules and rekindled interest in the instrument
Mac, I'm looking forward to hearing the answer to your question.

Andres Segovia?
And the winner is -- marvjonesi !
While there have been plenty of good answers, each one depiciting someone who certainly has helped popularize the guitar for the most part, it was Andre Segovia, the violinist turned self-taught guitarist who hit the woodshed quite literally and transcribed Bach and other composers for guitar and then "took it to the world" on a self-proclaimed one-man mission to put the guitar into the realm of all the other instruments then thought to be "legitimate".
He brought the quiet little guitar to worldwide attention and that was the beginning of the market demand.
--Mac

I had the great privilege of seeing Segovia at the De Anza College (Cupertino, CA) Auditorium around 1970. A man, a guitar, a room with 2500 people--and no microphone. Perfect.

Yo, marvjonesi, I'm really happy for you and I'm going to let you finish, but I've just got to say that Jimi Hendrix was the best guitarist of all time!
