Yes.

Florence Nightingale, "the Lady with the Lamp", best known for her nursing during the Crimean war, was "a true pioneer in the graphical representation of statistics", and is credited with developing a form of the pie chart now known as the polar area diagram or occasionally even (in her honour) the Nightingale Rose graph. This graph, equivalent to a modern circular histogram, was used to illustrate seasonal sources of patient mortality in the military field hospital she managed.
