Practically every short story anthology I can think of from the last twenty years includes at least one story by every writer you mentioned, except for the super specific ones.
Norton anthology of short fiction is great. There are a bunch of volumes to choose from, so if you want a bit more contemporary stuff get a more recent volume. But if you just want to feast on the form, any will do. (And lots of "context," if that's a concern.)
I see the latest is edited by Richard Bausch, who is a fine writer himself.
Honestly symbols, I don't know what you're talking about.
