In 1970 a nonprofit organization, the Dance Research Foundation,[8] was created to oversee the publication of Ballet Review.
[13] Mr. Hoshino continued to design the publication, and with his technical knowledge, astute eye, and masterful manipulation of color and tone, he firmly established Ballet Review as "The Premier Dance Journal.
[15] Ballet Review's final (double) issue, Volume 48, Numbers 1 & 2, "Spring-Summer 2020," was published in August 2020.
[19] The current members of the Board of Directors of the Foundation are Hubert Goldschmidt, Alan W. Kornberg, Dawn Lille, Michael Popkin, and David S. Weiss.
