At Columbia University in the United States, he was awarded his M.A. and Ph.D. in teaching.[5] After studying at Leeds, England, Chimombo returned to Malawi to edit the literary bulletin Outlook-lookout.[6] He was a professor of English at Chancellor College in Malawi and was considered one of the nation's leading writers.[5][8] In 1988 his Napolo Poems gained him honorable mention for the Noma Award for Publishing in Africa.[9] He was married to Moira Chimombo.[8] The poet Stanley Onjezani Kenani wrote the following appreciation of Chimombo: "Except for J.W. Gwengwe, D.D. Phiri, Jack Mapanje, and Francis Chipasula, I cannot think of any Malawian who has contributed more to Malawian literature than Prof. Chimombo."[11] He died at the age of 70 on 11 December 2015 in Blantyre.[3] The only Malawian writer as well as poet who did not went in to exile during the Kamuzu's rule, even there are some rumours that he was one of those who were giving the government the names of those who wrote against it.
