Hello Sarah, A good place to start might be: http://www.marine-geo.org/tools/GMRTMapTool/ for the Global Multi-Resolution Topography. You can save the grids out in a variety of GIS-compatible formats.
There is also the GeoMapApp tool which does the same thing: http://www.geomapapp.org/ The GeoMapApp gives you a choice of data layers, including high-res, so worth looking into.
