I worked for a Pennsylvaniia company in California and they refused ot pay me for my overtime and travel pay. They have since gone out of business and the President convicted of EPA violations and export law violations for dealings with Iran. How do I address this period of employment with this company in an interview coming up.

Just tell the truth. If the company promised to pay you for overtime and travel pay, the fact that you waited and didn't take them to the labor board shows you tried to resolve the situation. It should also show the new company that you have patience and a level, logical approach to challenging situations. Good Luck!

just say you worked from this period to this period, you were let go when the company was going down in flames, and thus there is no need to tell the truth, it's not like they can verify anything anyways since the company is out of business, and even then all they will want ( or will get ) are dates of employment, anything else risk liability in court on prejudicial hiring practices
