Tim Chapman Bio: Early Life, Parents, and Education
Tim is the son of Ronald Chapman and his now ex-wife Diane Wimberly – his parents divorced when he was two and a half years old. He has an older brother, Russell J. Chapman, with whom he spent his childhood at their paternal grandparents’ home. However, he would spend his teenage years with his mother and her parents, who were in bail bonds and were the owners of the company ABC Bail Bonds in Denver; in fact at 14 Tim made his first arrest as a civilian.
Career Beginnings
During his teenage years, he became more interested in the family business, and as a result, he met Duane “Dog” Chapman, (unrelated) who took him under his wing and made him a partner.

Rise to Prominence
The series premiered on the 31st August 2004 on A&E Television, and Tim remained on the show until the fifth season, appearing in every episode, following which he took a break as he needed to recharge his batteries, but was also shook up by his previous arrest, of which we will talk more later.
