"The two parties met woman to woman without their lawyers and are happy that they could resolve this dispute peacefully to their mutual satisfaction," according to a statement by attorneys from both sides that was released by Winfrey's Harpo Productions.
In her lawsuit, Mzamane had claimed Winfrey defamed her in remarks made at the time of a 2007 sex-abuse scandal at the school.
Winfrey later testified in a deposition that she "did not intend the implications" placed on her statements, while Mzamane testified she had "no evidence" that Winfrey knowingly made a false statement, the attorneys say.
