Wow this is pretty snazzy to see. Trina has a long history as a comics historian, so it should be well done.

It's forty years, not thirty.

According to Robbins' own website, it's "over thirty years," but not forty.

"Over thirty" doesn't mean "under forty" (though I'll grant you it's misleading). Her first published work appeared in The East Village Other in 1966 (source: Dez Skinn, Comix - The Underground Revolution, p.156).
