Marwitz was a member of the HSG Groningen, but lost interest in games and began, inspired by Herbstmann's books , with chess composition. Judging by awards, Marwitz was one of the most important Dutch chess composers of his time. As early as 1931 a two-move by him appeared in the Tijdschrift van de KNSB . His first studies appeared in 1937 at a tournament of the Royal Netherlands Chess Association. In 1949 he became International Referee for Chess Composition and in 1990 FIDE Master for Chess Composition. Marwitz died just a week after the public presentation of his second book.
