McWhinnie was born in Douglas, Wyoming and educated at the University of Wyoming (B.A. 1920) and Stanford University (M.A. 1935). He enjoyed a long and illustrious career at the University of Wyoming, serving as Registrar and Director of Admissions (1920-1963), Administrative Consultant (1963-1965), and Archives Consultant (1965-1968).
