Robert Chapman
Chapman Capital Robert Chapman is the founder of the activist hedge fund, Chapman Capital. Chapman was the first to use the required 13-D SEC filing to his advantage. 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 was born is southern California and attended the University of California, Berkeley. 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.
