Using a data sample of 24.5×106 psi(2S) the reactions psi(2S)-->gammachicJ, chicJ-->gammagamma have been studied for the first time to determine the two-photon widths of the chicJ states of charmonium in their decay into two photons. The measured quantities are [script B](psi(2S)-->gammachic0)×[script B](chic0-->gammagamma)=(2.17±0.32±0.10)×10-5 and [script B](psi(2S)-->gammachic2)×[script B](chic2-->gammagamma)=(2.68±0.28±0.15)×10-5. Using values for [script B](psi(2S)-->gammachic0,c2) and Gamma(chic0,c2) from the literature the two-photon widths are derived to be Gammagammagamma(chic0)=(2.36±0.35±0.22) keV, Gammagammagamma(chic2)=(0.66±0.07±0.06) keV, and [script R][equivalent]Gammagammagamma(chic2)/Gammagammagamma(chic0)=0.278±0.050±0.036. The importance of the measurement of [script R] is emphasized. For the forbidden transition, chic1-->gammagamma, an upper limit of Gammagammagamma(chic1)<0.03 keV is established.
