Horkheimer founded and ran the Zeitschrift as the Institute’s public face

Evidence

The Zeitschrift für Sozialforschung thus became the first demonstration in print of the Institute’s aims and capacities under its new director. Like the programme of interdisciplinary research, the journal was Horkheimer’s idea. The editorial director of the periodical, which was to appear three times a year, was Leo Lowenthal. On being appointed to a full position at the Institute, he had given up his teaching post, and he had no university duties. He devoted all his working energies to the Institute and to the Zeitschrift für Sozialforschung in particular. It came out more or less regularly for a decade. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 476 (#expands, via linked claim)
