AAO found the Petitioner demonstrated sustained national and international acclaim and is among the small percentage at the very top of the field, contrary to the Director's conclusion. The evidence included a major bronze prize at a prestigious Chinese photography exhibition, features in New York Times Magazine, Time, GQ, and Slate, museum collections, retrospective exhibitions alongside artists like Ansel Adams and Richard Avedon, and inclusion in Chinese photography textbooks.
Petitioner argued the Director erred in finding this criterion not met. AAO did not reach the issue at step 1 since three other criteria were satisfied, but considered the underlying evidence in the final merits determination.
