i understand that it may differ from tree to tree, but is it possible for any kind of tree in america that grows a considerably tall height and does so in 30-40 years?

It depends on the tree and the area. But here in the NorthEast it takes about 20 years for trees to be mature enough to sell for timber. The tree will grow taller with more years but the height of the tree and girth at it's trunk is measurably significant when compared to the trees overall potential growth.

I'm not sure what kind of trees they are, but paper companies have developed trees that grow incredibly fast. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 10 years.

Trees in the northwest, where there is plenty of moisture and its not really cold, grow rapidly.

Ash is pretty fast growing like that. White Ash or Black Ash are good bets.
