In 1921, she graduated from Bryn Mawr College and went on a trip to Europe with her friend Cornelia Otis Skinner.
The two friends co-authored the memoir Our Hearts Were Young and Gay based on their European adventures.
The success of the book as a New York Times best seller led to Kimbrough and Skinner going to Hollywood to work on a script for the movie version.
Kimbrough wrote about the experience in We Followed Our Hearts to Hollywood.
Kimbrough's journalistic career included an editor post at Fashions of the Hour, managing editorship at the Ladies Home Journal and a host of articles in Country Life, House & Garden, Travel, Reader's Digest, Saturday Review of Literature, and Parents magazines.
Hired in November 1923 as the researcher and writer for the department store's quarterly catalog, Fashions of the Hour, Kimbrough was later promoted to editor of the publication.

In 1950 The Girls, a short-lived television series based on her Our Hearts Were Young and Gay novel was telecast, with Mary Malone playing Kimbrough.
Kimbrough's Through Charley's Door (published 1952) is an autobiographical narrative of her experiences in Marshall Field's Advertising Bureau.
In 1952, she joined WCBS Radio.
