Copland and Sessions were not at all alike in background and personality. Both were born in Brooklyn, but Copland came from immigrant Jewish parents and grew up over the family store, while Sessions descended from generations of New Englanders. Copland's schooling went only so far as high school; Sessions proceeded from the Kent School to Yale and Harvard. Copland was homosexual; Sessions heterosexual. He, his first wife Barbara, and Copland enjoyed each other's company. Copland was Boulanger's favorite American student and remained a strong supporter; Sessions was in the group close to the famous French teacher for a while, but was not a Boulanger student and became disenchanted with what he considered endless sponsorship of her students.
