Though I don't have any of his dvds (but some of his books), Stefan Grossman is usually one of the first teachers mentioned. Nice stuff, lots of different styles.
Roy Book Binder's dvds are nice, "Blues by the Book" 1 and 2. They deal with different keys, the second one in A I learned some useful things (a couple of nice turn-arounds, which are fun to learn).
Woody Mann has some nice ones as well. "Logic of the Fretboard" is useful, also shows you some ideas and concepts that might be useful if you're just starting (but it's not the easiest stuff to play, though, for a true beginner at fingerstyle).
But whichever ones you choose, I'll second the suggestion of listening a lot to that kind of music. Find a style or a few players you like, and spend a lot of time listening to their stuff. There's some great collections / boxed sets out there, full of great music, and listening to it all the time is really helping me learn more about the style.
