Klaus Teuber
Reiner Knizia might be Germany's most prolific game designer and Wolfgang Kramer might have won more Spiele Des Jahres then everyone else has had hot dinners, but only one German game desginer gave the world Settlers of Catan, and it wasn't either of them. If it's been hard for Teuber to escape it's shadow these last ten years, it's because it's a very long shadow indeed.

Awards: Barbarossa (1988), Adel Verpflichtet (1990), Drunter & Druber (1991) and Settlers of Catan (1995)

You Can Tell It's A Klaus Teuber Game When: You're settling Catan. But the theme of exploring a new world returned with his other big hit, Entdecker.

Articles: Like Reiner, Klaus is such a game designing star in his own right, and has his own website.
