In 2000, after being ignored by American Community Properties Trust CEO Michael Wilson, Chapman sent letters to Wilson voicing his complaints. Other fund managers, including Third Point's Dan Loeb and JANA Partners' Barry Rosenstein, took notice and have used the 13-D to their advantage too.

Chapman received an internship from Solomon Brothers in 1987 and then worked for Goldman Sachs where he became better trader. In 1996, he started his activist fund Chapman Capital, which has agitated successfully for the restructuring or sale of over 20 publicly-traded companies.
