The last ones were printed in 1945, but carried a series date of 1934. The Fed stopped distributing them in 1969.

Inflation has caused a lot of people to call for printing new $200 and $500 bills but the government is concerned that they would be used in drugs trafficking so I would not expect to see those denominations any time soon. In addition, credit cards and electronic funds transfer mean that most people no longer need to use high-value bills for big purchases.
