It could be that I'm thinking about this way too much, but I'm worried about my writing sample for one particular application. I plan to use a modified chapter from my masters thesis for my sample. One of the key authors in the field, who I will cite a lot, is a faculty member in the department in question. Will this just look like I'm sucking up?

No, I don't think so. If they're one of the best in the field it will be obvious why you're citing them. The important thing is to submit the best work you have and if this chapter is it, then go for it.
