Seems you need to set the phone to MTP mode. Does that help

I spoke to Verizon on 8/19/22 and was told that MTP Mode was not part of my contract; If I added that feature on my phone the cost would be an additional $25.00 per month. I declined that offer. It would be cheaper to buy a phone that has the feature: phone to email. So, my problem is NOT resolved.

Does Ubuntu have the ability to download MTP on my phone?

One way is to send your photos to your email,
then download the photos to your Ubuntu.

The other way would pair the Bluetooth of the phone with the
Bluetooth of the computer and send the photos that way.

MTP is a local connection mode that a mobile phone is able to use (or not), does not use the cell phone network, and has no relationship to the contract that you have with your network provider.
I am not aware of any way that the mobile phone provider can enable that, and an additional fee of 25$/month looks like a rip-off to me.

What make and model is your mobile phone?
What happens on the mobile phone when you plug it into the computer, and what happens on the computer?

"When I did an internal search for File Manager"

You can open the file management application by clicking on the correct icon in the icon bar on the left edge of the screen. Just point to the icon that looks like a document drawer

Sorry, that I overlooked make and model of you phone, it is written on the very beginning of your question.

Which Ubuntu release are you running?
