In 1934, she co-founded the Shinkyo Theater Company but withdrew from the stage after its forced dissolution in 1940. During her time with Shinkyo, she also joined the P.C.L. Film Production Company.

She passed away from obstructive jaundice on March 20, 1976, at the age of 70.
Before her theater career, Hosokawa was married and had a daughter. Following her co-starring role with Maruyama Sadao in the 1926 play "Hose," she divorced her husband and began a romantic relationship with Maruyama, though they later separated.
