During an interview with the [[Birmingham Museum of Art]] Hatleberg articulated that he identifies most with "an American tradition of photography—from [[Walker Evans]] to [[William Eggleston]]. They are my heroes, but it’s undoubtedly a different time. I think it’s essential to take from tradition without being bound to it—to author one’s own time." <ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.artsbma.org/interview-with-photographer-curran-hatleberg/|title=Interview with Photographer Curran Hatleberg|website=www.artsbma.org|access-date=2020-04-11}}</ref> In 2015, Jordan Teicher wrote in Photograph,"Hatleberg’s photos succeed as [[Social documentary photography|social documentary]], but to see them only that way ignores their freewheeling poetry, and their lack of any sort of useable, concrete information." <ref name="Curran Hatleberg, Higher Pictures">{{Cite web|url=http://photographmag.com/reviews/curran-hatleberg-higher-pictures/|title=Curran Hatleberg, Higher Pictures|date=2016-05-27|website=Photograph Magazine|access-date=2020-04-11}}</ref> Hatleberg has also discussed [[fiction writing]] as an influence on his work, "After reading, everyone you pass on the street becomes fascinating or mysterious; the scenery shifts and everything seems infused with potent meaning." <ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.featureshoot.com/2013/10/curran-hatlebergs-intimate-photos-of-strangers-met-on-road-trips-across-america/|title=Curran Hatleberg's Intimate Photos of Strangers Met on Road Trips Across America|lastlast1=R|firstfirst1=Bryson|last2=October 4|first2=on|date=2013-10-04|website=Feature Shoot|language=en-US|access-date=2020-04-11|last3=2013}}</ref>
