Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the required evidentiary criteria. The AAO determined that the petitioner did not establish that her leading role was for an organization with a distinguished reputation. Furthermore, the submitted articles were not considered to be about the petitioner in major media, as they only mentioned her briefly or discussed her foundation's productions rather than her own work.
