Naomi Uman is an American and Mexican experimental filmmaker and a visual artist. Uman received an MFA in Filmmaking from CalArts in 1998. Uman's work is often "marked by her signature handmade aesthetic, often shooting, hand-processing and editing her films with the most rudimentary of practices." She was once private chef to Gloria Vanderbilt, Malcolm Forbes, and Calvin Klein. Her award-winning films have screened widely at major international festivals as well as the Guggenheim Museum, the Whitney Museum of American Art, and the Museo de Arte Moderno in Mexico City.
