Greenspan studied clarinet at the Juilliard School, and during World War II joined a dance band (Leonard Garment, now counsel to the President, played the sax). After a year of one-and two-night stands, Greenspan decided that he would prefer to go to college. In 1948 he was graduated summa cum laude in economics from New York University.

"During this time of repeated shelling of the White House, Al has never lost his composure," says Leonard Garment, assistant to the President. "He has dealt with the problems of the wounded with both compassion and detachment." In contrast to the closed-door policy of Haldeman, Haig has made the White House more accessible and a more pleasant place in which to work; there is at least a modicum of grace under ferocious pressure.
