Like previous Visual interviewee Avard, I have been a fan of Umberto on Flickr for some time and simply reached out to him for this interview. Like the film that shares his name, his photographic style shares the Italian neo-realist film spirit. It is straightforward black and white (for the most part) well thought out photography. I really just love his style…check out his links below:

Jesse, this Visual Interview and the one with Haruna Sato are two of your best.
I enjoy this series very much, and I think it would make a terrific book.
Keep up the great work!
Hey Jim,
Thank you for saying that!
Huh, you know I never thought about that but would have to agree that is a great idea! Thank you for that, and will do : )
