Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility under at least three of the required criteria. The evidence for a national award lacked proof of its significance, documentation for artistic exhibitions was insufficient, and the claim of commercial success was unsubstantiated and misapplied to the petitioner's field. The AAO concluded the petitioner did not demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim at the top of the field.
