Migdia has a 1999 Cum Laude UCLA BA in Political Science/Pre Law and Classical Civilization. She has been choreographed in jazz by Doug Rivera for many years and continues to dance weekly.
Chinea and other Guild members filed a class-action discrimination lawsuit against the WGAw and CBS after learning that, under terms of an affirmative-action program, they were expected to work for CBS for half of the minimum rate set by the Writer's Guild. In 1999 the $138 million class-action lawsuit was dismissed without a trial. The judge, J. Spencer Lett's, was quoted as saying "if you can get something for half, why would you pay full price?".
While a student of Classics at UCLA, she portrayed the title role in Seneca's "Medea.".
As Migdia Chinea-Varela she testified before a Congressional Committee in Washington (at their request), on October 21, 1997, on the subject of Affirmative Action (pro and con), Equal Opportunity -- Equal Pay for Equal Work in Hollywood.
