You can find "major" bankruptcies (e.g., those firms with assets greater than $50M) at Bankruptcydata.com

The U.S. government, with whom all bankruptcy filings are place, keeps records too. They do so by type, so you can hunt for Chapter 7, Chapter 11, or Chapter 13 specific filings at their sites.

You can find detailed bankruptcy statistics at the U.S. Courts websites where they were filed too. This site categorizes that info pretty well.
