Dance Magazine is a monthly dance publication covering modern dance and ballet, as well as other forms of dance, including jazz, primarily in the United States. The magazine was first published in 1927 and has continued monthly to the present day. Richard Philp was the Editor –in- Chief of Dance Magazine from 1989 – 1999. His career began at Dance Magazine as the Managing Editor, when he was brought to the magazine under William Como’s tutelage in 1969. Como was the Editor-in-Chief of Dance Magazine after Lydia Joel’s editorship, beginning in 1967 and continuing through the years until his death in 1989. When Como died in 1989, Philp was appointed Editor-in-Chief. He held that position for 11 years. In 1999 under a new publisher, and an office move to the San Francisco area, his role was changed to “executive editor”. In this role he continued to write his monthly Kickoff column until 2002.
