Chaney lived briefly in the small towns of St. Charles, Kentucky and Springfield, Tennessee but grew up from the age of five in Hopkinsville, Kentucky.[28] He carried newspapers for the Kentucky New Era from age 11 to 17 and credits the experience as valuable training for his adult life.[29] Chaney became an accomplished ventriloquist, magician and entertainer at a young age and used his entertainment skills to work his way through college.[30] Upon graduation he became a direct commission officer in the United States Army.[31]
Education
Chaney earned a double major Bachelors of Science from Austin Peay State University, graduating in 1964 with degrees in Marketing and Speech and Theatre.[32] In 1968 he received an MBA (Master of Business Administration) with a concentration in finance and management from St. Mary's University, Texas.[33] He received a Ph.D. (Doctor of Philosophy) degree from the University of North Texas in 1974 in the fields of management and behavioral science.[34] Chaney became the University's "Outstanding Alumni Award Recipient" in 2009.[35][36]
Careers
Military career (1964–1969)
Chaney received a direct commission officer assignment in the United States Army and served in multiple military commands during the Vietnam Era including tours in Europe and Asia.[37][38] In addition to regular wartime military assignments, he intermittently used his entertainment talents in other armed forces endeavors.[39] In 1965, a then - 1st Lieutenant Chaney entered and won top honors at an All Army Talent Contest. The top winners were formed into an All Army Entertainment production unit that toured and performed at military installations countries throughout Europe and Asia.[40][41] Lt. Chaney was selected to be the OIC (Officer in Charge).[1] During the tour, he often left the regular show and traveled to remote outposts in Vietnam and Thailand to perform. It is estimated that he gave 300 performances in Vietnam alone.[42] Following his Asian tour, Chaney was promoted to Captain (OF-2) and recruited to write, direct and coproduce an AFRTS Network sitcom television series, Magic Mansion.[43] During the series he wrote, directed and coproduced all of the 120 episodes.[17][44]
Chaney's final tour of duty initiated his academic career when he was assigned as an instructor to the Department of Army's Academy of Health Science located at Fort Sam Houston. The Academy was situated near near the Brooke Army Medical Center and housed Baylor University's program in Health Services Administration. While stationed here, Chaney wrote three books on the handling of medical material and produced multiple film and television projects for the United States Department of Army, Surgeon General's Office.[2][45][46][47] It was during this tour of duty that Chaney received an MBA (Masters of Business Administration) from St. Mary's University.[33] In late 1969, Chaney was honorably discharged receiving the Distinguished Service Medal (United States), and entered civilian life.[48]
Writing career (1967—)
Warren Chaney embarked on a writing career amidst his military service when he wrote all 120 episodes of the AFRTS Network production, Magic Mansion from 1965 until 1967. During this period, he wrote his first book, The Human Factor, a technical manual detailing the collection, handling, storage and shipment of whole blood.[49] In October 1967, he was reassigned to the United States Department of the Army's Academy of Health Science at Fort Sam Houston. During this assignment, he wrote two additional books pertaining to medical material.[50][51] In 1973, during his doctorate years, Chaney completed an unusual statistical study of the widely used reinstatement remedy under the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).[52] He surveyed and reported on 100% of all terminations falling under the NLRB's District 16 demonstrating that the long-standing law had failed. His study was published in 1974 by the Labor Law Journal making him one of the few non-attorneys ever published in that Law Review.[52] Eight years later, he followed with a second follow-up study and 100% survey of the same NLRB District. Once more the Labor Law Journal published his work[53] which in turn led to a request and later publication of a special study for the United States Congressional Special Sub-Committee On Labor-Management Relations.[54] The three publications were considered groundbreaking and were continually referenced in other publications for decades afterward.[55][56][57][58] The studies have continued to be used as reference material into the 21st Century.[59][60]
Chaney co-authored his fourth book, The Union Epidemic, during his tenure as a professor of the University of Houston at Clear Lake City.[61] It was one of the first anti-union books dealing with the potential danger posed by growing unions within the healthcare industry.[62] Chaney wrote 58 journal and/or magazine articles from 1968 until 1982. He was the Editor of the Health Care Communiqué, published quarterly by the Southwest Federation of Academic Disciplines from 1976 until 1978.[63]

He received some notoriety and national press when he organized students in his marketing research classes to develop working international business models for acquiring goods in Mexico for resale in the United States.[74] The student classes would then travel to Mexico and back with their grades dependent upon the profit earned from their endeavors. Following graduation, The Western Company of North America hired Chaney as their National Director of Organizational Development and he remained with them until late 1974 when he left for a career in management consulting and Academia.[75] He became one of the founding professors for the new University of Houston at Clear Lake City where he obtained tenure while establishing a separate management consulting practice.[76] He conducted business seminars and taught graduate level classes in Health Care Administration, Management and Marketing.

During his years of management consulting, Chaney owned and managed multiple businesses including a film lab, newspaper and a series of health clubs.[28] In 1985, he worked closely with his Joe Weider and Lloyd Lambert (President of Dynacam Industries) to stage the first Ms. Olympia women's bodybuilding competition (held in Philadelphia, PA).[79][80] Chaney and Weider became friends and afterwards, Chaney wrote frequent articles for many of the Weider publications.[81][82][83] Years later, in 1995, Joe Weider would make a rare public appearance in Chaney's American docudrama, America: A Call to Greatness.[84]
In 1980, he joined a family friend in the production of a motion picture in Hawaii, Aloha Summer.[85] By 1983, citing burnout, Chaney sold his consulting practice and businesses and relocated to Los Angeles to pursue a career in film.[28]

Legacy
With a career that spanned over forty years, Warren Chaney produced copious published works including books, screenplays, feature films, broadcast and commercial television productions.[103] Reviews have generally been favorable although he has received criticism[124] His film, The Outing was initially panned with Richard Harrington of the Washington Post writing that, "It was "stupid and senseless, and the special effects look as if they were shot on a family's weekly shopping budget."[125] However in recent years, the film developed somewhat of a cult following.[126][127] On the other hand Hal Erickson writing for Rovi said of Chaney's Hawaiian film, Aloha Summer, "Aloha Summer is a magnificently photographed delight for surf-movie aficionados." Winston Aaronson of Screen Times said the film is "well directed and extremely well written." Verna Schroder of The Sun News wrote, "the film is emotionally moving." Some reviewers cautioned that the historic nature of the film possibly made it too religious or conservative for some audiences.[128]
Chaney is considered one of television's early pioneers[129] for his work in the 60s AFRTS series Magic Mansion[40][130] Net News Daily writing of Chaney's early work on Magic Mansion stated, "Magic Mansion" was much more than a children's' show presented by the Armed Forces Radio & Television Network. It remains an important memory for many of the children of the Viet Nam era whose parents were stationed abroad."[131] Thirty seven years after Magic Mansion ended, the daughter of a military family stationed near the shows production facility wrote in the news and events section of Blurp Wire, "I once saw Warren Chaney and Harriett (the shows co-star) at a military commissary. They were swamped by kids and fans. Adults too. What impressed me even then, was how kindly the two treated their fans. They signed autographs for over an hour, talked with the children and so on. I realize now, they were just there shopping."[132]
Chaney has been credited for helping others further their career due to his active mentorship and willingness to provide newcomers a career opportunity. His film's screen credits regularly included credits for film interns and production assistants. Actress Tia Carrere (Wayne's World, True Lies and Rising Sun has credited Chaney with her discovery in a grocery store that led to a lead role in Aloha Summer.[133][134] Likewise actors Rutherford Cravens,[135] Hunter Lee Hughes,[136] and character actress Kathy Lamkin (No Country for Old Men, Friday Night Lights[disambiguation needed
])[137] credit their initial film break to Chaneyl.[138] Scott Bankston, film producer of 50 First Dates began his career with a starring role in Chaney's The Outing.[139] Film and television crew members such as three time Emmy winning television producer Michelle Fitzgerald[140][141] and the special effects makeup artist team of Phillip and Melissa Nichols[142][143](Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls Rushmore (film) and Arlington Road), have acknowledged the same.[144] Chaney and Lloyd Lambert, CEO of Dynacam Industries collaborated to bring a Texas female bodybuilder newcomer, Rachel Mclish to compete in the first Ms. Olympia bodybuilding contest where she won the 1980 inaugural competition.[145]
