Eric Burns is an American photographer on his honeymoon on board the Titanic with his newlywed, Stephanie, who is upset at him not spending much time with her. He turned his cabin, C-78, into a small darkroom, in which he keeps a vast collection of photographs of other passengers.
According to Third Officer Morrow, on the night of 13 April, Eric Burns came up from A-Deck and tried to bribe his way onto the Bridge in order to take pictures.[2]
He is not seen after the ship hits the iceberg. In unused dialogue in the game's files, he is begging the player to give him the boatpass, on the boat deck, so that he and his wife can escape the ship.
