Ballet Review is a quarterly color print publication which covers all aspects of dance. It is published by the non-profit Dance Research Foundation, Inc.
While its name says "ballet," it also covers modern dance, contemporary dance, other choreography, and all kinds of folk dance including Asian traditions. It is noted for its carefully chosen contemporary and historical photographs; in-depth interviews with dancers, choreographers, and company directors; and reports of recent performances in New York City, in world capitals, and from around America.
Arlene Croce,David Vaughan and Robert Cornfield founded Ballet Review in 1965. Croce acted as the publication's first editor. Vaughan continues to write for the magazine, and Cornfield was the magazine's second editor. In 1970 a nonprofit organization, the Dance Research Foundation was created to oversee the publication of Ballet Review. The Foundation is also involved in research about dance and related arts. Francis Mason, co-author of Balanchine’s Complete Stories of the Great Ballets was editor from 1980 until his death in 2009, at which time he was followed by Marvin Hoshino, the current editor.
