Morphology
polygrapher = polygraph (opaque) = poly + graph + er
This sense depends on an old, specialized meaning of polygraph, so modern learners are unlikely to infer it from the base.
Etymology
Polygrapher combines poly- 'many' and -graph 'to write', like in biographer. So a polygrapher can mean someone who writes a lot or who writes about many different topics.
