Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because although the Director determined the petitioner met three evidentiary criteria (judging, authorship, and leading/critical role), the petitioner did not establish in the final merits determination that he has sustained national or international acclaim and is among the small percentage at the very top of his field. The petitioner incorrectly argued that meeting the minimum of three criteria was sufficient to qualify for the classification, failing to address the final merits analysis.
