Emilie Brzezinski is her own kind of power player: an artist with a chainsaw

Emilie Brzezinski knows more than most political wives about power tools. She owns six chain saws. All made by Stihl. And all designed for different jobs. "The 360, it's for big things," she explains, pulling out a machine that looks as if it could give the entire forest in nearby Great Falls Park a buzz cut. The chain (it's a "rip chain," she explains, "to make the cutting faster") runs around a guide bar that's 21 / 2 feet long.
