Marie Currie is definitely historical, although it would be hard to label Bill Nye as a historical figure. At least now. You have to be at least dead to be a historical figure. Obviously some living people, like Obama for example, are going to be historical figures no matter what, because here hasn't been a single president so far that hasn't been mentioned in a history text book, but I don't think I could consider any living person to be "historical".
