    Cal swim coach Kristen Cunnane will share her inspiring tale of surviving child sex abuse in the Moraga school district in an hour-long show on the Oprah Winfrey Network on Tuesday.

    Cunnane, who’s story was profiled by this newspaper a year ago, will be featured on “Our America with Lisa Ling” at 10 p.m. Pacific time on Tuesday on OWN.

    A physical education teacher was convicted of molesting Cunnane over a number of years and the Walnut Creek resident has sued the school district claiming she was abused by two teachers after administrators failed to report earlier abuse as mandated by law.
