What document class are you using?  Assuming it is the book class, 
\thispagestyle{empty} immediately after the \bibliography command 
should take the page number off the first page of the bibliography. 
The book class hardcodes a \thispagestyle{plain} in the definition of 
index, so you will need to change this (add the following code to 
your preamble.)  If you're using koma or memoir, these classes have 
ways to do this more elegantly.  -Alan
