 | | Josephine Schwarz, a pioneer of the American regional ballet movement and a co-founder of the Dayton Ballet, died Friday in Boulder, Colo., said her niece, Johannah Franke. |
 | | Miss Schwarz and her sister, Hermene Schwarz, who died in 1986, were natives of Dayton who, through decades of persistence, made that Ohio city a dance center. |
 | | Miss Schwarz was a former member of the dance advisory panel of the National Endowment for the Arts, and she held honorary doctorates from Wright State University, in Dayton, and the University of Dayton. |
