Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the required minimum of three evidentiary criteria. The AAO determined the petitioner only satisfied two criteria: judging the work of others and displaying work at artistic showcases. The AAO disagreed with the Director's initial finding on the 'published material' criterion, concluding that the submitted articles were not substantially about the petitioner or from sources established as major media.
