Peter Hoffmann was the first composer to present a cyclic Babson task in orthodox moremover without promoted units. The problem and many other Babson tasks can be seen in his Babson task article on Ralf Krätschmer's website.
His talent is not limited to Babsons: in 2011 he was granted the title of FIDE Master and a commented selection of his problems in PDF format can be seen and downloaded on berlinthema.de.
